Caffeinated Jiu Jitsu: Fuel for Your Roll, On and Off the Mats
Whether you're fresh into your white belt journey or deep into black belt life, Caffeinated Jiu Jitsu is brewed for you. This podcast explores the world of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu through the lens of curiosity, community, and a strong cup of coffee.
We dive into the topics that matter training plateaus, competition prep, injury recovery, gym culture, mental toughness, belt progression, and yes, even that first awkward day on the mats. Each episode is crafted to help new practitioners find their footing and give long-time grapplers something fresh to think about.
You’ll hear:
- Real conversations with teammates, coaches, and special guests from all belt levels
- Honest takes on the highs, lows, and lessons of BJJ
- Fuel and flavor because what’s training without good coffee?
Join us for episodes that blend technical insights, off-the-mat stories, and community shoutouts. It’s a podcast that respects the grind, celebrates the journey, and keeps your mind as sharp as your game.
