The Science of BJJ
Hi, I’m Liam Wandi and I write PartTimeGrappler because no one else will!

The resources available to those who want/can/afford to train full time seem endless. I am not a pro, and have no wish to be one! I hold a demanding full-time job that I enjoy, study for a part-time university degree (majoring in Statistics and Human Biology) and have a family, wife and a life full of other hobbies.

I also train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (currently Purple Belt under Karl Tanswell) and No-Gi grappling and supplement my training with kettlebell, yoga, running and other sessions, which has made me really good at getting the most out of my day.

I don’t believe in goals. I believe in happiness.

As some of you know, the other subject I am studying (besides Management) is Probability (otherwise known as the science of luck) and one of the topics I am covering now is called random processes. These are random sequences of random variables*. An example is a man very-drunkedly walking home from the pub.
