Podcast Insights on Recovery and Training

[Music] [Music] [Music] hello and welcome to uh minimum effort podcast I am JJ and I'm here uh to talk about recovery um you know just it's it's one of those things that nobody really thinks about and uh I'm getting up an age and uh I wish I was younger I wish I was like still in my 20s or early 30s but you know it's not the case and uh JJ's like 40 oh I'm here guys hello I'm here hey hey there's the ghost of mink past in here all right uh my my internet is horrible today so I'm just joining with voice voice is the voice in your head or maybe in my head have you ever seen the movie voice all the time no not Ryan Reynolds it's good it's really really good so when you watch it just think Deadpool but serial killer yeah and this is before the Deadpool movies I think I think it's before them so it it's it's good it's it's a really good watch you should watch it with Charlotte the voices yeah with Ryan Reynolds it's it's really good it's a really good movie I think Christina likes it or it traumatized her one or the other but is Ry Ryan Reynolds doing his whole thing but it's like it's better than when he's Deadpool in my opinion okay got it got it got it um let's see let's see um I don't know if you know this not Ming but we do have a new opening video that I can't show because apparently it's the wrong format so I'm just going to do this [Music] all right there we go oh you stopped it halfway what I stopped it halfway because the new one's shorter so I don't know maybe I'll just add it right here all right [Music] okay I see bam all right [Laughter] uh yeah I I was just falling apart and it's early in the morning and you know JJ's in recovery season so I guess who guess what I've been doing guess what I've been doing recovering sleeping oh you've been sleeping sleeping that is that why you didn't respond to me till like 6:00 a.m. that's right cuz I slept at 600 a.m. whoa did you get like a full six hours of sleep I might have got more than that might I might have legit ped and seven that is like twice the amount you usually sleep bro bro I mean I we've been hitting it hard we've been hitting it hard in Summa right we've been training hard we've been I've been hitting the gym consistently like every [ __ ] morning back to back to back and uh you know you knows demos yeah demo on demo um man and you know season's not done for for our Outreach we still got plenty of Outreach coming up our tournaments for the year are done we're not going to the Texas classic we are not going there no reason to No it's it's not got we've we've done enough maybe next year we'll figure that out but um everything right now is recovery and SoCal prep right SoCal open prep that's all what it's all about yeah and February 22 February 22nd 2025 and uh yeah it's I'm I'm really excited really excited about it um and of course recovery is Big while we're expanding too because now we have two locations for Honus suuma know we're here in San Diego and we have a location in Orange County so with all of that we need to really focus and make sure all of our people are well rested and ready for the next uh the next Sumo year so yep yeah and uh let's talk about injuries right injuries injuries injuries so consulates no not the consulat cup the previous one Olympia at the Mr Olympia JJ had a uh different kind of style different kind of style um and that style was interesting to say the least right so let's see if we can find that let's see if I can watch this so no I'm just going to show photos right now so here do videos I think I think it's good enough I I know but I don't have it I don't have that prepped up from the Olympia oh okay yeah this is a me problem not a you right okay so got it right here we see JJ against uh Ryan White and you see Jordan in the back and you see polish dude in the back so you can see some some monsters lurking right um Ryan I I went with him before but I don't remember him being very sapari crazy but he definitely suppar the [ __ ] out of me hit me in the face and then I answered back um and uh yeah that was coolies yeah moreti it's a party saati um and then of course oh no wrong one Boop oh oh then this is JJ against Jordan again we are all about that saati saati saati saati now I don't know if my body was exactly ready for the amount of saat right and then JJ getting be by uh UAG yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah look at that face look at that face you see that face that's just hello darkness my old friend yeah here we go again and then Cornelius is over here talking huh this is a Polish guy yeah this is the Polish national champion and I think he won third at Worlds I want to say some along those lines I should have really you should have you could have beaten him I know I know no it was uh my mindset for sapari only really kind of messed it up I should have adjusted for that one but my brain couldn't it was a hard switch in my head so I still like trying to organically move but the end result of this particular uh tournament right um I ended up tearing my rotator cuff right into spot you want to point that out to people where it is where where the shoulder is no no no because oh no the shoulder it's it's a shoulder it's a shoulder but but but so I was damaged right I was damaged andh I had one week rest and you know it's one week of quote unquote rest but I'm like still kind of I know I have one more tournament so it's then you start hitting that like debate in your head like oh should I do the next tournament and honestly if it wasn't uh Justin's tournament I would have flaked out I definitely would have just said screw it I I'm not GNA go um but but I'm like you know it's Justin kards right and there's some dudes in middleweight that I want to see where they're at um there's you know I I understand where I'm at I think I'm still quite um amazing um still quite I agree I agree uh quite quite uh phenomenal uh but but I do see where like a 23y old might have a future and then or I'll like open the door for Malik right there's a lot of middleweights that can come in and really like put some stuff up but they have to beat the champ to become the champ that's just how it works this is true this is how it works you can't the champ right now is not JJ though the champ right now is not JJ though technically technically technically this is true but in my heart I'm the's champ in my heart you're champion of not winning it is good and I appreciate you man as a person that's never won anything I appreciate you um so I've gotten silver before I've gotten silver got the first place loser you're a first place loser look at you yeah um y so we're talking about uh you know winners right thanks uh winners so I I head into the into that tournament and I'm not not 100% right not 100% so I'm definitely holding back a lot right like like a lot a lot so I I literally couldn't do most of my normal game or my added game so I have to like really think and this is where me personally this is where I dig deep into my old school Judo mindset mindset not body set mindset so like my autopilot of Judo wasn't there for this instead it was an autopilot of Sumo in understanding different techniques oo give me a second I got to let the dog in all right I'm back all right so uh so I had to go there's a there's a a judoka he's my one of my favorite judokas he passed away recently he was the national coach for Paris but before all of that he was an amazing competitor and this is in the era of Mike Swain and uh so it was Mike Swain and the person that I really respect Koga Koga was the dude Koga was the dude and he hurt him self he got hurt in in uh in a practice or some some maybe a tournament before and he legit could not do his style of Judo so his style of Judo is very much like seag based so like Eon Mar he even has like his own step BS for it which are really amazing but he couldn't do his system so he had to SW because I think he hurt his hip I want to say is his hip or short one or the other so he had to do a completely different style and he was able to snap and do it so in my head that's kind of what I was channeling right my little TT hero Koga like I was like really really trying to body that which I think I kind of did I think I kind of did um some people would argue I did some people would argue I didn't so let's see let's see um let me pull up some matchs of that right all oh let me get past the Cherry troser all right so this first match is a gimme right um as as you kind of look at the brackets the only person I on my side that I kind of had to worry about was Mike wisham Mike wisham again I believe he's the future so he's within that like all right and then the other side had um uh Chad who always beats M and um and Cory Morrison Chad has never beaten me what are you talking about all right so here we go so right off the bat I I try first a party and I was like wait wait wait no no no no no no and then this one's a nice easy one of just easy push out right classic easy just like once again this is his first tournament um it wasn't it was it was a nothing it won't be a nothing forever but that's that's where it starts right that's where it starts now this match with Mike wisham way way um rougher of a match right um this is also the one where I continued to injure myself which is interesting so we come out boom he has a fast toui but he let me get the double unders which allows me to control his torso a little bit more he fights in for the inside grip which allows me to kind of uh cut the angle and my my circles were on point of course right there my Springs were inappropriate and when I landed I jacked up my Meniscus on my knee right just a weird stupid little injury but if you watch again watch this motion boom circle circle boom boom boom and there's there's some details there it's all about having your legs nice wide and open almost a little bit past um um hip distance right so it allows you to maintain your base and circle around um years of ser yashi are just showing uh diviant there all right so from there JJ is broken absolutely look at this chitty chos oh yeah yeah yeah let's look at let's look at it that was Christina Christina said it the best Christina was like oh that was European like yeah it was very much [Laughter] very European broken JJ broken JJ um I come out I didn't even I didn't even go past the line and you handled them yeah wait is that the first no this is the second one this is the second one ooh my my videos are out of order my videos are out of order so well guys I know you watched some of this stuff on the last one of the last episodes but we're not really talking about the Sumo here we're talking about JJ being injured yeah this is all about the broken y again you can tell from my walk in everything's off and it's you know my knee is jacked up I definitely should have won this one but my my feet were too high all right oh no no I don't want to hear that okay cool I don't need to hear that yay all right now that puts me into this space I don't know if you guys can tell JJ's not doing good that is the face I'm not feeling good now should I have uh continued no I should not have but fried is dirty and that stupid gold medal I guess meant something to me now the level of pain that I'm feeling here is about eight out of 10 right that's why I look like force rer in one eye it looks like I'm having a and I'm just like trying to get over then of course people are like oh come and take a photo come and take a photo I'm like no look at this smile look at that that's that's what we call pain that is pain in trying to figure out how I'm going to get home and I'm really trying to hold it all in I'm trying to hold it all in all right so there we go all right so that brings me to Sunday so Sunday my pain level was 10 out of 10 so I could not I could not and again listen to me I could not put pressure on it as I was stepping out of the plane which I've never exper I've had knee surgeries before right I've had like I've had things done I've never truly felt a true 10 out of 10 right I've never this was a 10 out of 10 because I functionally could not move right so that's that's literally what that is um you know it's a lesson learned lesson learned um I also you know probably honestly I think the smarter move might have been to drive back with Todd but I didn't right um I'm about to show a photo Todd drove because he's crazy so this was me leaving Urgent Care look at that sexiness right there right now that's a sexy man that's a sex green Crocs your your turquoise Crocs and H your Sumo Sushi tank top I had the chains that those are airpods right there you can't see but those are airpods I got my chains and my airpods Sumo and sushi little G fanny pack wide open dropping stuff on the floor socks with the Crocs because I'm a gentleman so straight from the airport that was a non-negotiable Christina made me go and I'm happy she made me go I say that um but but that brings me to the recovery of it right so one literally one week later I I go to a couple different spots so like I'mma play some really terrible videos that I didn't add together yet so la Hoya Wellness Center I walk into there like they got a surfboard they have an ultra sound so in the ultrasound they're able to tell where I'm jacked up right and the treatment that we did don't have a video of that so please forgive me um so the treatment that I got was PRP so they take out blood and they take out like this much blood this much blood a lot of blood yeah and then they spin it down they spin it spin it spin it and it took like 30 minutes to spin it down and as they spin it turns into like this thick like molasses blood and it's like like uh they after they spin it it's about two of these so it goes from to two of these which is kind of crazy um and then they use the ultrasound to guide the needle as they inject the blood into the areas that kind of don't get a lot of blood right so they use it to inject to get into the the tenants that I tore um for my rotator cuff and then into the knee and the knee so the shoulder kind of hurt but it hurt like first I could kind of see it and I could see like the needle going through and that's like me I like I like being able to have control over things even or a perception of control so if I can see the needle going in doesn't hurt so I'm like oh okay cool and then I can see the ultrasound of like the needle in the tenant and then it flooding up with blood and then going deeper and then flooding up with blood and then going deeper flooding up I was like oh that was cool um so that was that was pretty bad and then they did the knee the knee was like that was a m truck that was a M Truck how was was a pain out of 10 okay so it's different it's different cuz it's different kind of pain it's a different it's not like I almost don't want to call it pain it's uncomfortable it's uncomfortable um so the needle goes in and first I could see the needle go in I was no problem but I couldn't kind of see where what they did from there so I'm there just trying to watch but I'm I end up looking up and all I do is go like I just start laugh like in it's like uncontrollable laughter and I'm like oh man this is uh uh this is this is this is good this is good so it was like a pressure a pressure and what's crazy is after that you know you feel a little extra fluid in the knee because you're like you got that rich blood all up in there and [ __ ] which isn't normal and then after that I'm walking I'm walking walking home walking home yeah right so from my injury I'm literally uh from the two injuries I guess I'm I'm I'm a week away and I'm back to work um I I've done the the POA wave to and the pimp so I got the Deep ultrasound where it breaks up scar tis tissue I got a deep tissue massage I got acupuncture La Hoya Institute of wellness and big wave like rob me right back so if you're in San Diego and you're like oh man I'm either broken and I need to do something or some like any of those things I I will the the the the the proof is in the putting you know what I mean and they putting in work they're putting in work um and I I'm I'm I'm not 100 yet but man I'm like a good 75 right now I'm a good 75 i t i t the other day 10 days after like 10 days 12 days yeah yeah I taught the other day and you know I I haven't done any live rounds because I'm not trying to [ __ ] mess myself up but I was teaching and you know sometimes you got to do something right and I'm like all right this is what we're doing and I'm showing like some sway Jou uh book stuff and it's just hard for me to explain that one a little bit easier like that's it's it's one of those things where I'm like uh it's in there but it's not quite I'm still working on that so I ended up showing what I was doing and I was like oh nothing hurt Nothing Hurt I'm I'm doing great doing great um so I have I think they told me 30 days 30 days before I could really like open up so I'm going to legit take that 30 days I'm not going to do anything crazy I'm just going to focus in on teaching and learning and U doing my PT so and stay within that and let me tell you something I'm moving mov in a great Direction definitely and Recovery includes

Christina made me go and I'm happy she made me go I say that um but but that brings me to the recovery of it right so one literally one week later I I go to a couple different spots so like I'mma play some really terrible videos that I didn't add together yet so la Hoya Wellness Center I walk into there like they got a surfboard they have an ultra sound so in the ultrasound they're able to tell where I'm jacked up right and the treatment that we did don't have a video of that so please forgive me um so the treatment that I got was PRP so they take out blood and they take out like this much blood this much blood a lot of blood yeah and then they spin it down they spin it spin it spin it and it took like 30 minutes to spin it down and as they spin it turns into like this thick like molasses blood and it's like like uh they after they spin it it's about two of these so it goes from to two of these which is kind of crazy um and then they use the ultrasound to guide the needle as they inject the blood into the areas that kind of don't get a lot of blood right so they use it to inject to get into the the tenants that I tore um for my rotator cuff and then into the knee and the knee so the shoulder kind of hurt but it hurt like first I could kind of see it and I could see like the needle going through and that's like me I like I like being able to have control over things even or a perception of control so if I can see the needle going in doesn't hurt so I'm like oh okay cool and then I can see the ultrasound of like the needle in the tenant and then it flooding up with blood and then going deeper and then flooding up with blood and then going deeper flooding up I was like oh that was cool um so that was that was pretty bad and then they did the knee the knee was like that was a m truck that was a M Truck how was was a pain out of 10 okay so it's different it's different cuz it's different kind of pain it's a different it's not like I almost don't want to call it pain it's uncomfortable it's uncomfortable um so the needle goes in and first I could see the needle go in I was no problem but I couldn't kind of see where what they did from there so I'm there just trying to watch but I'm I end up looking up and all I do is go like I just start laugh like in it's like uncontrollable laughter and I'm like oh man this is uh uh this is this is this is good this is good so it was like a pressure a pressure and what's crazy is after that you know you feel a little extra fluid in the knee because you're like you got that rich blood all up in there and [ __ ] which isn't normal and then after that I'm walking I'm walking walking home walking home yeah right so from my injury I'm literally uh from the two injuries I guess I'm I'm I'm a week away and I'm back to work um I I've done the the POA wave to and the pimp so I got the Deep ultrasound where it breaks up scar tis tissue I got a deep tissue massage I got acupuncture La Hoya Institute of wellness and big wave like rob me right back so if you're in San Diego and you're like oh man I'm either broken and I need to do something or some like any of those things I I will the the the the the proof is in the putting you know what I mean and they putting in work they're putting in work um and I I'm I'm I'm not 100 yet but man I'm like a good 75 right now I'm a good 75 i t i t the other day

sometimes you got to do something right and I'm like all right this is what we're doing and I'm showing like some sway Jou uh book stuff and it's just hard for me to explain that one a little bit easier like that's it's it's one of those things where I'm like uh it's in there but it's not quite I'm still working on that so I ended up showing what I was doing and I was like oh nothing hurt
