It’s time to show some love for the older men and women who train! Starting jiu jitsu at a late age is no small feat. At first it can be taxing mentally and physically, but soon the payoff comes when you start seeing hard-earned improvement. Being the old person in the room means you need to train smarter. As you progress in years, you have to become more strategic. This mentality fosters sharp technique and a methodic mindset. In this episode we talk about the challenges and rewards that come with starting jiu jitsu after fifty, getting your body to perform difficult techniques, and how to roll with younger people.
