Brandon Mccaghren is a 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Black Belt under Eddie Bravo and head coach at 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu Decatur.

Brandon joins the show to discuss the first season of his jiu-jitsu grappling league, The PGF (Professional Grappling Federation).

Brandon chats about the thought process behind having a “season format” for a jiu-jitsu tournament, why he dislikes judges decisions for tournaments, his unique rule set and point system for the league, and ideas for future expansion of the league.

We also talk about the importance of trust in your training partners when applying joint locks, why twisting joint locks are restricted for the legs but not for the arms, developing the ability to delegate, Brandon’s thoughts on the “EBI Overtime” tournament format, and much more.

Watch the tournament live and free every Friday night on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/TenthPlanetDecatur
