To celebrate the launch of the new BJJ for Old F***s instructional (available at grapplearts.com/oldguard) here are some of the most important takeaways for the older grappler.

In this episode Rob Biernacki (age 46) and I (age 52) discuss...

  • The two things that change most about your training as you get older
  • How to improve as fast as possible by limiting your training
  • Why base, posture and structure are even more important for older grapplers
  • How to select for techniques that are high percentage at the high level but still work on young whippersnappers
  • How to stay safe on the mat and not get injured
  • Reducing unnecessary movement so you don't get tired
  • How gripfighting and range management will dramatically improve your abilities on the mat 
  • And much more.

Honestly, if you're beginning to creep up on the wrong side of 40 then this is a must-listen.
