For this episode of the BJJEE Podcast, we spoke to none other than the legendary Roger Gracie! Among other things, Roger shares how he came to lower his training intensity and why it’s important not to go for the win every time you roll. He speaks on how he grew into BJJ as a teenager and what got him to take Jiu Jitsu seriously at a young age, as well as about the type of a mentality which is necessary for becoming better.
He also talks about dealing with pre-competition nerves, the long-term attention to details and perfecting them – which got him to such an elite level, the lessons of BJJ in life and much more!
