Born and raised in Carlisle, he faced a challenging childhood, being adopted and moving between various relatives and schools. At the age of fifteen, Rusty found himself on his own, learning to fend for himself.

    His journey took a significant turn when he decided to pursue a military career, eventually applying for and successfully completing the rigorous SAS selection course in 1977. This achievement earned him the prestigious beige beret and winged dagger insignia, and he was assigned to B Squadron.

    During his time in B Squadron, Rusty was exposed to various threats in different regions, including Guatemala, Belize, Borneo, and Botswana. He undertook multiple tours in these areas, facing the challenges of jungle warfare and desert training. Notably, he played a critical role as a Blue Team leader during the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege in London, demonstrating his bravery and expertise in counter-terrorism operations.

    He participated in highly sensitive training operations worldwide, honing his skills in Special Forces training, presidential-level bodyguard training, and counter-terrorism techniques, providing security and surveillance services during conflicts like the war in Sarajevo, close protection and security management positions, and working with prestigious clients.

    Today, Rusty is a highly sought-after motivational speaker, sharing insights from his experiences in the SAS to inspire and educate audiences in corporate and business settings. His speeches offer winning strategies for navigating challenging situations and coping with crises. With passion and realism, Rusty helps leaders and teams develop crucial thinking skills to tackle the ever-changing landscape of today's business world. Rusty Firmin's life is a testament to resilience, determination, and unwavering dedication to duty. His journey from a challenging upbringing to a celebrated SAS member and influential speaker serves as an inspiring example for individuals and businesses alike. In this interview, we chat about his time in the military and the SAS, writing his books, the '6 Days' film and why you need to ignore the push to stop and aim to go always a little further every day.

  • Why Mastering the Basics Made Roger Gracie Unstoppable

    Today's guest is Roger Gracie!

    Roger Gracie is a retired mixed martial artist and former professional Brazilian jiu-jitsu competitor. He was one of the first people that taught me that you can build your own game by being yourself and not following what is currently the favourite of people that year!

    The son of coral belt Mauricio Gomes and grandson of BJJ founder Carlos Gracie, Roger Gracie is one of jiu-jitsu's most decorated and accomplished athletes and considered by many as the greatest competitor in jiu-jitsu history. He taps black-belts with white-belt techniques, making it look effortless. His skill level is terrifying, and his ability to read the action borders on almost being able to see the future.

    A member of both IBJJF Hall of Fame and ADCC Hall of Fame, Gracie won 10 IBJJF world championship titles across multiple weight classes, every year from 2004 to 2010, becoming the first competitor to win the open weight division 3 times.

    He is also a two-time European Champion, and a Pan Champion. Gracie is an ADCC Submission Fighting weight, absolute, and superfight champion, the only athlete to win gold in both his weight class and the open weight division with a 100% submission-rate.

    Roger retired in 2017 after defeating then BJJ world champion Marcus Buchecha, leaving jiu-jitsu without a single submission defeat in his record.

    He now spends his time coaching and inspiring the future generations of BJJ stars and helping the sport reach new levels.

    In this interview, we discuss how he transformed from meh to master ability, how he found himself through the sport, how you should approach BJJ to see greater development and why it doesn't matter your age or ability, you can excel and grow through BJJ.

One effective self-defence technique and three classes later, the kid was addicted to martial arts. At the same time he found weight training and he quickly transformed into a man child!

    This sparked a 15 year journey of fitness and fighting that lead him to move to Melbourne JT won a national championship in 2006 and an international competition in 2007. At the same time he was constantly improving his physical conditioning knowledge, on his way to becoming one of the first certified kettlebell trainers in Australia. At the start of 2008 he found Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. It totally kicked his butt! After this point, his passion for learning martial arts took a new path and he started to conceive ways to get stronger and fitter for this new challenge.

Traveling, training and competing for extended periods of time in Brazil, the United States and Canada enabled JT to see how jiu-jitsu was evolving at the highest level. His constant quest to find the most effective training methods would continue to give him a competitive advantage on the mat. From that time, he has worked with multiple world-champions as well as some of Australia's best grapplers Having experienced his own battles with injury and seeing others suffer the pain of time lost on the mats, JT wants to help more people roll better for longer using the right training.

They believe that every grappler can continue to improve on the mats, and live a strong, pain-free life with some knoweldge and training methods, and with a combined 25 years training, competing, and coaching, they will show what it takes to thrive in BJJ. Bulletproof For BJJ helps reduces niggling pain, fix muscular tightness and joint restrictions, help you build better athleticism and faster recovery, with the focus so that you can perform optimally in every training session.
