Dante Leon: New weight class, ADCC bronze, conjugate method for BJJ

Dante Leon is a 2022 bronze medalist and IBJJF world champion. He is one of the most skilled grapplers in the world at  170 lb, and he joined team CAPONUTRITION earlier this year. In this podcast, Dante and I discussed his journey to become one of the most accomplished BJJ players starting from a small city in Canada and growing his game far from the leading sports hubs. Dante is also a Westside Barbell member and worked on numerous S&C tutorials for grapplers. We talked about the importance of a sports-specific routine to optimize performance in combat sports, including nutrition. We also reminisced about our ADCC experience with a particular focus on the mental process that led Dante to win the bronze medal. Lastly, Dante dropped big news related to the next IBJJF world championship. You will find it at the end of the episode!
