Resilient Jiu-Jitsu Jeff Liwag

Forged from the same champion factory that produced the likes of Romulo Barral, Felipe Pena, et al, “Golden Boy” Lucas Valente is already counted among the elite at 24. He got silver at the 2019 IBJJF Worlds, then went on to win in 11 different tournaments. He is the world’s top ranked black belt w/ the highest number of submissions in the past year.We go over his evolution in the sport, training w/ adult black belt competitors at 12, his mindset, goals, and long-term plans.

In my interview with 2019 Mundial gold medalist Andressa Cintra, she talks about how she fell in love with Jiu-Jitsu because it was hard for her but everyone is so happy, thinking outside of the box, why Jiu-Jitsu is essential, what to do when you feel like you plateau, the champion's mindset, and more.
