> Carmack talks about wrestling and then grappling which is an absolute grind.

I had no idea he was a wrestler. My oldest son and I train BJJ together and he finally got interested in high school wrestling after we did a standup seminar. I'm really happy as it tends to develop mental toughness better than any other sport.

That's great! There are some dads at my gym whose sons train, and watching them roll together is a treat.

From a toughness angle you're spot on. I've never done anything harder than learn to relax and survive underneath someone bigger who is also attacking. You want to panic, which is the absolute worst thing to do.
