0:00.0	What up guys? So today on the podcast, we have a up and coming ADCC competitor,
0:05.2	meaning that he's getting ready to compete at the ADCC championships in September of 2022.
0:12.0	Interesting story. I think something that a lot of you guys will have some fun with is in this podcast,
0:18.6	is the fact that he's only been training
0:21.1	Jiu-Jitsu full-time for a relatively short amount of years.
0:24.9	You know, a lot of times I get questions from people that are like,
0:28.3	how good can I be if I start at like this age or that age?
0:32.0	You know what I mean?
0:32.4	And again, obviously, if you're starting Jiu-Jitsu at 40,

0:51.6	And we get some nice tangible tips as far as training,
0:55.9	his routine leading up to the ADC, see how he's balancing his training with staying relaxed and
1:01.5	everything else. And so hopefully you can kind of both get some, you know, inspiration for your
1:05.8	training, but also maybe get some ideas on possibly how you could train. Or if you're a coach,
1:10.3	maybe how to structure
1:11.0	some of your training there.
1:12.6	And so guys, thank you so much for being with us today.
1:15.8	As always, our podcast is brought to by some of our sponsors.
