What gets you motivated?

Whats something you use to motivate you for training?

For me it’s videos. Right now with the nose still healing, its terrible. I can’t help but watch jiujitsu videos when I have some free time which gets me psyched up and it sucks because I can’t roll to get rid of some of that energy. Oh well my lifts are coming up which is good and I’ve been getting lots of reps drilling.

Here are two of my favorite videos to watch when I need a little motivation.

Andre Galvao Budovideos clip

I remember seeing this back in 2009 when I was watching DVDs I ordered from their website. This video always brings be back to a time where I had cleaned out all the debt I had left, and began training full time. It always gets me pumped up to train even though its not super action packed or anything. Just reminds me of how far I’ve come since then.

Rodolfo vs Buchecha

This is just such a fantastic match. Even though my personal favorite (Rodolfo) loses. The match is incredible and always leaves me wanting to push it during some of the harder training sessions.
