Book Description:
The Mat Doesn’t Care: A Brutally Honest Jiu-Jitsu Survival Guide for White Belts, Worriers, and the Already Wrecked
You didn’t sign up for this. Not really.
You thought Jiu-Jitsu was about confidence, discipline, maybe getting in shape. Instead, you’re gasping under a teenager, tapping to accountants, and wondering why you pay good money to get strangled three nights a week.
That’s where this book comes in.
This isn’t another how-to manual full of techniques you’ll forget mid-roll. It’s a survival guide for the people who are drowning—the white belts, the overthinkers, the wrecked and burned out. The ones who almost quit but still show up.
Inside, you’ll get:
The 30/60/90 Day Roadmap – a brutally honest timeline for surviving your first three months without ghosting the gym.
Rules nobody tells you – hygiene, ego, injuries, why “going light” is the biggest lie on the mats.
Dark comedy + real relief – laugh at your misery instead of crying in your car after practice.
Parent & comeback playbooks – whether your kid joined the pajama-fight cult or you’re limping back after quitting.
Field-tested checklists & archetypes – everything from White Belt Bingo to “don’t be that guy” warnings.
This book isn’t here to make you a champion.
It’s here to keep you alive, laughing, and just crazy enough to come back tomorrow.
Perfect for: new Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners, struggling white belts, hobbyists fighting impostor syndrome, and parents trying to decode the madness.
The mats don’t care.
But this book does.
