Ok, so it's been a while since I last blogged on here but it's because I have been training like crazy in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Moreover, specifically
Gracie Barra, which is a branch of the Gracie Family. As I prepare for my first tournament ever, and really my first true organized fight, I realize that along with all my physical training, I also need to train my mind and focus on the task at hand. A very interesting tip from my World Champion Professor,
Flavio Almeida, was that you need to learn how to focus your adrenaline. This is because right before the fight you can spend it all really quickly , become very tired and get beat. This documentary is a little older but it features
Rickson Gracie which is considered one of the best Jiu Jitsu artists' of all time, if not The Best. He goes over his preparation for the tournament and shows why he is so grounded and ready when the time comes. If you are a fighter of any type, I suggest you watch this. Either way though, once you start training Jiu Jitsu, it will change your life. This definitely fits the
"BeatLife" mold because this lifestyle does not allow for life to kick your ass. A funny fact about
Rickson, he will never tell you his age. It is just a number to him...Maybe that's why his relatives all live into their 90's. Watch and Enjoy!
