What a great honor & surprise! This week I was promoted to Brown Belt in Jiu-Jitsu by our awesome Professor of who is under the tutelage of leader of

Initial thoughts …

1) wow.. I really need to learn a lot more jiu-jitsu now so I can properly live up to this new belt!

2) I moved up from the freshman team to the JV team. One more step to go to get to the Varsity Squad 🥋 with the big boys.

I am so grateful for so many that have helped me along my journey and for all the benefits that training has provided me … it’s made me matter psychologically, physically and spiritually and given me another awesome grappling community that has become a home.

I have so many people to thank but I am so grateful to my wife who has been so supportive of my journey. It’s hard to find someone who really wants the best for you every time, even when it is inconvenient for them. That’s MJ!

Thank you of for introducing me to BJJ 🥋 and always encouraging me not to quit… even though I was old and my body hurt! And of course his mentor of and for all the good training and visits over the years.

Especially a huge thanks to my professor and for their great teaching and family they’ve built at

It was so cool seeing my dude and college wrestling stud in Las Vegas and to meet his new wife.

I was a part of Matt’s journey as his college wrestling coach. He’s killing it on and off the mats … crushing it as a college strength coach, brand-new husband and killer brown belt 🥋.

The beauty of the fighting arts is the relationships you build along the journey! And we couldn’t have had a better setting to reconnect.

It’s time. Are you warm? Are you ready?

As you stand in the center of the mat, or octagon, and await your toughest opponents, you’ve probably gone through an extensive physical (and psychological) WARM-UP process.

But what about before training on an average day at the gym?

Did you know that statistically far more injuries occur during training than competition?

When you get injured and have to take weeks or months off it’s probably going to be during normal training…. Not from competition.

There are a few theories on why this is but the one I think is most accurate is that we simply do not treat our body on an average training day with nearly the care we do on a competition day. We don’t do a Proper Warm-Up, and we get hurt.

That’s not good because it’s a lot easier to keep something going than to start and stop it constantly… that is especially true of skill and conditioning development and ESPECIALLY true after age 35.

Here are some benefits and 1 key to a Proper Warm-Up:

1. UNINTERRUPTED PROGRESS - you need this in your our grappling life! A Proper Warm-Up will help you remain injury-free to train, so that you can make uninterrupted progress in skill and physical development for years on end. If you can do that, you will reach your potential much more quickly!

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET: Too many of us view a warm-up as an annoying activity unrelated to martial arts progress. .. just a series of unrelated and annoying movements that have little to do with our ability to make progress. So we want to skip it and get on with our workout. Don’t think like that!

In another post, we”ll tackle more specifically exactly what makes for a Proper Warm-Up.
