  • In this episode, I sit down with ADCC 2022 Silver Medalist, Craig Jones to discuss many topics that have not been spoken about in public.
    We discuss what ADCC is really like, what goes on behind closed doors, and what it is like competing against John Danaher and Gordon Ryan, we discuss Craig's radical changes to his diet that he made in preparation for ADCC, and why weight cutting is such a big issue in professional Jiu Jitsu.

    Fixed the audio for you - ua-cam.com/video/TO5uXzz8cL4/v-deo.html
    Thanks for this interview Jordan. I edit videos for a living - something I learned: If your audio levels are ever this unbalanced and it was recorded onto one track, apply an audio compressor with these settings and it'll level things out:
    Ratio 4:1
    attack: 0ms
    release 65ms
    Threshold (this is key) : reduce the gain until it's 6db - 8db reduction from the lower mic.
    This will balance the volume quickly without you having to spend a few hours manually doing it.

    How would this work with wrestling? Yes we have multiple day weigh-ins but we do it every week (ex. Dual Tuesday then Two Day Tournament Friday and Saturday). Would the BJJ Performance help? And how would we be able to get our caloric needs but still make weight ever week? I believe I have a good grasp but I also believe it could be easier then I tend to make it.
