In this episode, I chat with Ahmed Gebril (@gebrilgrappling), a purple belt training out of Connecticut Submission Grappling. He's been actively competing since he started training a year and a half ago and we dive into CLA, improvement, mindset, and how he approaches skill training vs open mats as he preps for competition.
