In this episode of Beyond the Mats, I sit down with Salvador Hernández, a BJJ brown belt from Enso Jiu Jitsu in Portland, Oregon. With a big super fight on the horizon, Salvador opens up about his training, mindset, and the journey that led him into coaching. We also dive into life off the mats, the lessons Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has given him, and how he’s using them to inspire others inside and outside the gym.


Whether you’re a jiu jitsu competitor, a coach, or just love the lifestyle, this conversation is packed with insight, motivation, and perspective.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
