#040 The Jiu Jitsu Long Game Pt2 w/ Phil Grapsas
And we're back! And what a guest to have on our first episode back than Big Phil Grapsas! In this episode we discuss ... Why do we strap up the belt and jump on the mats daily? Why do we persist with jiu jitsu amongst the injuries and busy lifestyles and every other trial and tribulation we encounter with jiu jitsu? Sure this is a sport, but more importantly it's a martial art that we pursue for self improvement, for life. We talk about the process of getting started with jiu jitsu, the benefits of the art, the early days of Phil's jiu jitsu, and the Pedro Sauer Association in Australia, and so much more. Thanks Big Phil Grapsas of Leverage Jiu Jitsu in Thomastown, Melbourne. Sorry for the audio issues, we'll get it right next time. If you like this episode, let us know on Instagram @higherjiujitsu. And share with your friends! Thanks legends. It's good to be back :)
