Today we have the pleasure of talking with Jim Trick, who has recently skyrocketed in popularity thanks to his Instagram Page "MyWhiteBelt." Jim is currently a BJJ purple belt training out of First Colony BJJ.

Jim is a perfect example of what you can do if you are determined and do not make excuses. Jim is very honest with us about the good and not-so-good aspects of training BJJ, difficulties training later in life, being the sweaty guy, and mindset when first starting your jiu-jitsu journey. At his heaviest, Jim was well over the 400 lbs mark.

BJJ's impact on Jim's life is easily seen in what he writes and talks about. Many of us are looking for others that might know what we are going through in our journey. Jim's page offers some guidance and motivation for any new practitioner of the gentle art.
