On this episode, we chat with Amy Campo.
Amy is a Jiu-Jitsu black belt and the 2022 West Coast Trials Women's 66 kg+ winner.
Amy discusses her start in BJJ, how she developed her wrestling, why its important to make training as real as possible, the differences with rolling and training with men and women, attributes that Amy felt were helpful for improving her BJJ and how Jiu-Jitsu helped to develop those attributes.
Amy also discusses why you should train harder than you compete, what her training looks like outside of competition, the importance of focus, manifesting your goals, what changed from the East Coast and the West Coast ADCC trials, what to do between matches, what was surprising about ADCC competition, Amy’s relationship with her coach, Eduardo Mori, the importance of having interests outside of Jiu-Jitsu, thoughts on Gi and No-Gi training, and her favorite techniques or submissions.
