In this episode of The Midlife Mount, we tackle a big question in the BJJ community: should you compete, or is training just for fun enough? Whether you’re gunning for gold on the competition scene or simply rolling for the love of the sport, both paths are valid—and both come with their own benefits.

We’ll break down the pros and cons of competing, how to decide if stepping onto the competition mats is right for you, and why choosing not to compete is just as legitimate. From building confidence and sharpening skills to simply enjoying Jiu-Jitsu as a lifelong practice, we explore why both choices can lead to personal growth and success.

So, whether you choose to compete, not compete, or are still on the fence, this episode will help you embrace your own journey in BJJ—on your terms. Slap, bump, and let's talk about it!
