Jena is a Jiu Jitsu Black belt, No-GI World Champion and multiple time European Champion. In her episode we discuss training, the mental and physical prep it takes to get ready for a big fight and she tells us about her move to Professional MMA.
In her transition to MMA her training has changed significantly, and not just by adding striking, she's also had to adapt her Jiu Jitsu game to more of a MMA style. We also talk about the importance of having a training routine and some of the weird messages she receives as a female fighter.
Follow her in IG @jenabishipbjj and check out her podcast the Not Fighting Podcast she hosts with her husband and fellow black belt Tyler.
