Average Joe Jiu Jitsu Podcast Episode 28: Part 1: Uke Mike, Part 2: Wendler 5/3/1 for BJJ

In Part 1 of this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Uke Mike who is a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under Jordan Presinger of Limitless Brazilian Jiujitsu and Kickboxing in Ontario, Canada (see Episode 24 for an interview with Jordan). Uke Mike is one of the two cohosts of the Jordan Talks Jiujitsu Podcast and is featured in videos on Jordan's YouTube channel, "Jordan Teaches Jiujitsu". We discussed how Mike discovered Martial Arts and Jiu Jitsu, as well as his experiences with addiction and mental health and how Jiu Jitsu has been a positive solution or management tool for both.  In Part 2 of this episode, I share my personal experience with strength and conditioning for the average Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu enthusiast, and maybe help you try to unravel all the red tape to get to a plan that is simple and effective, which doesn’t demand numerous days in the gym and doesn’t have you burnt out and overtrained balancing strength and conditioning, jiujitsu training, work, family and just life in general. Please be sure to leave a five-star rating on Spotify to spread the podcast. Every little bit helps, and I genuinely appreciate any support you choose to give. Thank you for listening!!!
