Six Weeks

Jiu Jitsu Is Hard

This is a piece I wrote about the last six weeks of my experience of going from a 50% capacity to an 80% capacity, all to be taken out by a chronic illness. My strength coach asked me to write this piece describing what it’s like to get to the top of your game and have everything going for you and then have it taken away and what perspective you gained from the experience. This was painful to process and painful to accept about myself, but it’s also liberating to tell my story. Thanks, Henry.
