Zen Jiu Jitsu: Over 40

By: Oliver Staark

Narrated by: Kirk Hanley

Over 40 and training in BJJ? Zen now offers new concepts that will change the way you think and train instantly.

This is the audiobook I wish I had when I began training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. My age, I didn't think was a factor at the time and now after many years on the mats, I've found that certain strategies and concepts when applied save me from constantly being injured or de-motivated by plateaus. I know how it feels to wonder if this is a long term game or just something I wish I could be good at.

Follow the advice and ideas in this audiobook and you'll be training into your 70s! Topics covered include:

• Having a training life
• Motivation
• Age versus talent
• Getting and staying fit
• Staying Injury Free... and much more

The features in Zen Jiu Jitsu for the over-40s cover a lot of ground... Drilling and how it impacts your progress; promotions and their ability derail or support your game; nutrition tips; advice on training aids and resources.

Interesting book

It had some good information and I’m glad I read it as a blue belt trying to make it purple and over 40.

Just what I needed...

If you could sum up Zen Jiu Jitsu: Over 40 in three words, what would they be?

I'm a BJJ white belt over 40 and this book was very useful to me. Many useful advice from diet to risk management. As the title suggests, any BJJ practitioner should read this book.

Great book, but R is pronounced as an H

It consciously and subconsciously makes you question the validity when the narrator butchers Gracie names.

Lot of advertising

Sine good info but lots of plugs definitely could have done without. Everyone knows how to use google we don't need a long drawn out website name

Nice Read

Really good read for those interested in improving there view of jiu jitsu. And training.
