Today, I am joined by Ben Brandon, a purple belt training and coaching at ATOS Tacoma. Ben started his jiu-jitsu journey in 2020 and, in a short three years, has become a Master World Champion as a blue belt. In this episode, we discuss his jiu-jitsu journey, how he prepares for competition, his nutrition, strength, and conditioning, his experience winning a world title, and much more.

Ben is a testament that it doesn't matter what your life was like before stepping on the mats. You can achieve great things with the right friends, coaches, dedication, and faith.
