Today we'll discuss Trauma as it relates to Jiu-Jitsu competition and Injuries from BJJ competitions.

I'll share a story about a time I suffered from both physical and mental trauma that made me lose my hope in competition...

But, I'll also explain the steps I took to slowly regain my confidence as a Wrestler and start competing again.

I'll also discuss the idea of competition value. How important is it to compete? Do you need to compete?

These are the things we'll discuss.

Let me know what you think below and leave any questions on your mind. I'll pick my favorites and answer them as videos here.

Thanks for watching.
