Chris Leddy talks - 2 Major Back Surgeries, Irish Message Boards, and Developing as a Coach - Ep 40
Description
Chris Leddy is a Brazilian JiuJitsu Black Belt, He runs https://martialartsbray.ie/ alongside his brother Adam, He's also an instructor with David Gray Interactive https://www.davidgreyrehab.com/courses/Interactive
Chris has been training JiuJitsu since the late 2000s after befriending Darragh O'Conaill in a local weight lifting gym. Since then he has traveled, trained and competed all around the world.
We discussed Chris having not just one but two microdiscectomy operations, the most recent being earlier on this year. I'm not sure if this was a good title for the video, we discussed a lot more than what's there I had a loose idea where I wanted to go through his back operations, a famous boards.ie discussion around him competing as a white belt at the world championships in 2011 and then his journey and opening his gym up until this point.
But like most good conversations with Chris i've had it drew off into different paths and directions but we got there in the end. I will get around to the timestamps in the next day or two and they'll be posted in the comments.
