As somebody who fell in love with Brazilian jiu-jitsu in a time of my life where I needed something from a mental standpoint and a physical standpoint, I was not in a good place in my life at Years Old and I'm now and I have not stopped, uh, doing what I love.
What happens when your passion almost takes your life? Chris Martin knows this story all too well. In this gripping episode of 'Recovery After Stroke', Chris opens up about his life-changing experience with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and how it led to a stroke caused by a carotid artery dissection. But this isn't just a tale of misfortune; it's one of grit, recovery, and finding strength in adversity.
Chris dives into the physical and mental hurdles he faced, the therapies that aided his recovery, and the unwavering support system that helped him bounce back. The episode also sheds light on the importance of safety in martial arts, including the use of duplex ultrasound as a preventive measure. If you're curious about how BJJ can both challenge and heal, or if you want to hear a story of incredible resilience, this episode is a must-listen.
