A BJJ Marriage

Happy Sunday all! If you've been listening to our last few podcast episodes you'll know we've had an EXTREMELY busy but fun filled summer ☀️ Today was probably the first day we've had 0 plans since April and we wanted to keep it that way, especially with the rainy day. With that said, we will be recording and posting episode 73 TOMORROW, 9/12 instead of today. Thanks for understanding, we appreciate all your support and we can't wait for what's to come with all the guests we have lined up on the calendar 🎉 For now, here's a video of Brittany doing a fun takedown we learned at our August seminar from Manuel Vazquez to take place of the Sunday podcast post 🙃 have a great week and we'll talk to you tomorrow 🤗

Our next episode is up! 🥋💗🥋 060 - Rest Rounds Are Holding You Back We're back to a normal week of training in the Lee household and are diving into why you shouldn't sit out in between rolling rounds. People use rest rounds to catch their breath and give themselves a break in between rolling, but should you really take those breaks? Do you know what it's like to roll lighter, focus on defense, keep yourself on the mat, and maximize your rolling time? Show Notes: - Which Teletubby do you align with? - New Gi's - Maximizing your cardio and endurance on the mat - Recovery while rolling - breathe and defend - Learning to breathe in uncomfortable situations - Concepts of breath - the belly - diaphragmatic breathing - Have fun while rolling - Intensity while training - 80, 50, 20 rule - sharpens your technique - Defense vs attacking - White belt mentality - ego - positionally and submissions - Sitting out leads to injury due to muscles cooling down - Everyone starts as a white belt - No one starts out and is great at it - It does get better, we promise - 1) breathe 2) show up 3) manage intensity - Meghan's Women's Article: https://www.gentleartlifestyle.com/post/how-to-level-the-playing-field-for-women-in-bjj YouTube: https://youtu.be/znZkRXMOjH8 Podcast: https://anchor.fm/abjjmarriage/episodes/060---Rest-Rounds-Are-Holding-You-Back-e1hk7s3 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Y6cBryHh19gj1xGMF9C9m?si=N8YoLS14RIWbtXYPkgfskA A BJJ Marriage: abjjmarriage.com Fluid BJJ: https://www.fluid-jiujitsu.com/ 12 Hour Charity Roll-A-Thon: https://fb.me/e/2r2crqq0m Gentle Art Lifestyle Summer Camp: https://www.gentleartlifestyle.com/summercamp2022 Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/abjjmarriage/support #abjjmarriage #fluidjiujitsu #bjj #bjjpodcast #whitebelt #breathing #recovery #defense
