Eliot Marshal on The Strenuous Life PodcastEliot Marshall is BJJ black belt and a former professional mixed MMA fighter who also appeared in Season 8 of The Ultimate Fighter show.

In today’s episode of my podcast (The Strenuous Life Podcast) we talk about how to run a successful BJJ school, the financial incentive structures in MMA fight teams, the physical and mental attributes you need to be a good fighter, and making a living off of jiu-jitsu.

Even more importantly we go deep into Elliot’s experience with anxiety and depression, his rules for raising kids, and his Gospel of Fire book coming out soon.
