A popular diet in the Jiu Jitsu community is the "Gracie" diet. A popular sandwich that was created in 2010 is known as the the Renergy Sandwich. It's creator, Rener Gracie, developed this sandwich which supposedly provides a lot of Renergy or more commonly known as energy. Its recipe is below
Ingredients:
spinach
almond butter
avocado
wheat bread
organic olive oil
kale chips
Directions:
1. toast wheat bread
2. spread almond butter on wheat bread
3. slice avocados and lay on one slice of wheat bread
4. sauté spinach with organic olive oil and place on other slice of wheat bread
5. garnish spinach with kale chips
6. put both slices of wheat bread together and enjoy!
The Renergy sandwich is a convenient, quick, and affordable way to create a healthy snack.

Jiu Jitsu Injury
I have recently acquired an injury to my wrist during jiu jitsu practice. I have been diagnosed with an abnormal amount of scar tissue in my left wrist. Unfortunately the only treatment to remedy this injury is to undergo arthroscopic surgery. About 2 weeks ago I decided that my injury was not improving and to undergo surgery at Queens Medical Center. I have been away from jiu jitsu for approximately 6 weeks now, with another 6 weeks ahead of me for recovery. This has been an extremely depressing situation and I feel that everyday my skills and conditioning are deteriorating. It seems easy at this point to quit and not return, however, this is a sport I love and enjoy so I will return eventually. I have set goals and will gradually ease back into the art.

Batch #32
The well known, and well respected Brazilian Jit Jitsu brand: SHOYOROLL recently released their Batch #32 Beast Kimono on October 15, 2014 at 7:00 AM (Hawaii time). Shoyoroll sells a limited number of gi's per release. Their gi's sell out online within a few minutes of being released, and also has a 2 gi per customer limit. Luckily, I was lucky enough to purchase one of their Batch #32 gi's.
Some specs on the gi are as follows:
Batch #32 is another project creatively driven by the DF crew. There was a time in the era of the 90’s where competitors had patches all over their uniforms. The era where BEASTS like Bustamante, Terere, Leozinho, Roleta, Margarida, Shaolin, and Ze Mario owned the podium and changed the game forever. This is the era our brand is built around and some of the legends we salute through our brand each and every day.
*Limit: 2 per customer
**Estimated Ship Date: Friday, 10/17/14
Color: Black

- One piece jacket with no back seam

If you are a fan of BJJ and you roll, Shoyoroll gi's are definitely something you should look into.
