Being a Dad and Training BJJ Is Hard… But Worth It | Father's Day Special

from 40 & FIGHTING

Happy Father's Day from the 40 & Fighting Podcast! With Anthony out this week, Misa joins the show for a special episode dedicated to all the dads who somehow manage to juggle family, work, and still find time to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Being a dad and a martial artist isn't easy, but it's one of the most rewarding journeys out there. In this episode, we give props to the fathers who sacrifice sleep, free time, and comfort to show up for their kids and still step onto the mats. We talk about the struggles of balancing family life with training, the wins that keep us motivated, and what it really takes to continue pursuing Jiu-Jitsu while being present at home. Whether you're a new dad, a seasoned father, or just trying to balance life and training, this episode will hit home. In this episode: • Father's Day reflections • Training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu while raising kids • Finding balance between work, family, and the mats • Why dads make great training partners • Sacrifices, struggles, and small victories • Staying consistent when life gets busy • Funny stories and real conversations with Misa The 40 & Fighting Podcast is where everyday grapplers talk about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, competition, life, family, and the journey of martial arts after 40.
