On this episode of the podcast, we answer a question from Scott who asks how becoming a parent has changed our perspective about Jiu-Jitsu. He also asks if there is anything wrong with being a stereotypical 40 year-old dad who trains 2-3 times per week. Chewy shares his story of adopting his son, the importance of play and situational sparring, the importance of environment to improve your Jiu-Jitsu, working hard to be a man worth respecting and leading by example, becoming more efficient when you become a parent, why busyness can disguise itself as laziness, constantly analyzing yourself, not taking your training for granted, and if there is anything wrong with being a 40 year-old dad hobbyist.
