Welcome back to BJJ Balance!
In Episode 161, Matt and Kenny bounce through a little bit of everything — from why MMA fans seem to hate jiu-jitsu, to why “just stand them up” is easier said than done, to whether anyone actually enjoys going back and rewatching old fights.
The conversation also drifts into holiday season chaos, worst Thanksgiving/Christmas foods, social media growth, Facebook comment wars, big guy jiu-jitsu strategy, the “Never A2” mindset, PGF team format talk, and how to get kids — especially daughters — interested in training.
This one has a little bit of everything: jiu-jitsu philosophy, coaching mindset, MMA crossover talk, internet nonsense, and the kind of off-the-rails conversation that makes BJJ Balance what it is.
