Another IBJJF Pan Jiu-Jitsu Championships in the books... and the Kingz athletes did not disappoint!
Pans has always been a peek into what we can expect at the upcoming World Championships. And if this Pans is any gauge, it will be epic. This year, we saw returning champions add another title to their resume, as well as dark horses putting their names on everyone's lips with epic battles and emotional upsets.Â
We are always very proud of every one of our sponsored athletes who go out there and represent us at the world's biggest events. And when they bring home that gold, it's even better. Here's the shortlist of Kingz athletes who brought it home...
If youâve been training jiu-jitsu long enough, youâve been there: burnout. Itâs a scary feeling. For some, itâs a heavy lethargy that weighs you down as you try to convince yourself to go train after a long day. For others, itâs a realization that youâve come to dread stepping on the mat. For all, itâs the loss of that initial joy for the gentle art that motivated you go, rain or shine.
It's real, and it happens to everyone. Multiple times, even. Iâve experienced it at least once or twice every belt level, to some degree or another. You canât avoid it. The good news, however, is that there are ways to manage it. And hereâs how...
While some may have already given themselves a head start on planning their 2024 year, letâs be honest⌠most of us have procrastinated. Now in February, you might just now be getting around to figuring out how you want your year to look.
That includes your 2024 jiu-jitsu competition season. But where do you start?
Unless youâre a brand new white belt, youâve been here before. And youâve probably already experienced that sinking feeling when, suddenly you realize â in, say November â that you havenât nearly accomplished all that youâve set out to do.
Youâre not alone. Weâve all been there. The great part about a new year is that you can brush off last year and start afresh, this time with greater determination to do better. And you will. Because weâre here to help.
Nearly three years ago we put out our first Ultimate Kingz BJJ Gi Guide, and it has been one of our most-read blogs every year since. Why? Probably because you â our wonderful fans â have discriminating taste and you like to know what youâre buying. We respect that.
But three years is a long time, and since then weâve put out new iterations of our best sellers, as well as brand new models! We figured it was time to give our guide a much-needed refresh.
So, without further ado, here are all our current running BJJ gi models, their individual specs, and a little bit about why we love them so much.Â
The new year is well and truly upon us⌠but itâs not too late to create your list of goals for the year. In fact, procrastination is often a companion to inspiration. (This is what I often tell myself).
What I like better than coming up with a single resolution for the year, is setting a list of goals. Why? Because if you have one single goal, failing to meet it can be a severe blow to your confidence. If you have a set of goals, you are almost guaranteed to meet â or partially meet â at least one or two. The trick is to make sure your goals are not only reasonable and attainable, but that any bit of success will deliver growth that you can be proud of.Â
Not sure where to start? Weâve created a short-list of the best and worst BJJ-related goals for the year...
