Off the Mats Podcast #260 - Competition Mindset feat. Madeleine Avila

What's going on, happy people? This week on the podcast, I sit down with Madeleine Avila, a fierce BJJ blue belt competitor from Crazy 88 MMA. Madeleine shares the story of how she got started in jiu-jitsu and what continues to drive her competitive fire. We explore the importance of team culture and support, and how she sharpens her mindset and technique.

Madeleine gives insight into her strategic approach to game planning, as well as the process of identifying and working on holes in her game. She opens up about how she balances mastering the fundamentals with exploring more advanced techniques, and how she mentally prepares for competition—battling nerves and staying focused.

We also dig into one of the toughest lessons she's learned from stepping onto the mats, and how she unwinds outside of the competitive scene. And of course, we wrap it up with a round of rapid-fire questions to close out.
