Lex Fridman Podcast · #343 – Roger Gracie: Greatest Jiu Jitsu Competitor of All Time · 3 Dec 2022 podcast

I was eating super well.

That's when I started changing.

So when I got back to Rio, I was super motivated.

to follow up, carry on.

And he invited me to go back there to live with him.

But I couldn't.

It was too soon to change schools and everything.

My mom said, no, but maybe next year if you want to go, you can.

So I kept that in my mind.

Next year, I moved to the south to live with him.

I was 15.

And it was him, my uncle Helion.

and my uncle, Carlin.

They both used to live very close to each other.

They used to have their own schools close to each other.

So I was with both, and I stayed there for almost a year.

I mean, I was the youngest in the academy.

There was some, you know, blue, purple belts, normal guy, but they were already competing, training ahead of me, and I just joined the group of training.

I didn't compete while I was there because there was no competition at that time.

And I wasn't really ready, but it's not about competing.
