If I may complain for a second.. I have been asked more in the last few weeks if I coach kids BJJ than ever before. I do not teach kids nor BJJ. However at this point it feels like I'm just leaving money on the table.

Another reason is the lack of reward system for kids and hobbyists that aren't interested in competing. So I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I do not mention it much for fear of sounding full of myself, but I am above and beyond the best coach in the local area.

You would think that my winning percentage as a coach would bring in the market. This is not how it works. I don't believe it will ever work that way. People want to buy into a lifestyle brand. BJJ offers that. Sadly this is not a rising tides raises all ships situation.

This current fight camp has been brutal. Camp is full of killers but man it's tough to grind through. Really solidifying myself in the local region as being the premier coach. It's hard though, because often you have to choose between competition success or financial success.

I am honored to considered this man a mentor of mine. I have not spent the amount of time on the mat that I would like with him, however he has been a huge inspiration, and he has spent time guiding me both while on the mats and off. youtu.be/4pQaT3_Opjo?si=cDsq…

This is why I am pro belt ranking for Western martial arts. It is a Western invention to have different levels and gradings.

Some people still don't understand this.
People think it's the PEDs alone that will get the results.. but they still have to go put in the reps.. and even then.. people don't want to hear this. But to really excel at D&D, you need the right genetics. Without all 3, they'll never be a #EliteLevel #PowerGamer

I am teaching mixed martial arts at a second gym now in my hometown. This is a local karate dojo. They reached out and wanted to bring in MMA. Today was my first day and it went well. I am only doing 1 day a week currently. I might expand to 2 days.

I remember when this happened. I believe she got in trouble for this. Regardless. Good technique.
