HOW I GOT MY BODY: KRON GRACIE
‘THE 26-YEAR-OLD BRAZILIAN JUJITSU CHAMPION HAS DNA ON HIS SIDE (HIS GRANDFATHER
PRACTICALLY INVENTED THE SPORT). BUT AS HE GOES PRO IN MMA THIS YEAR, IT'LL TAKE MORE
THAN A PEDIGREE TO WIN—LIKE A METICULOUS MEAL PLAN, 100 PULL-UPS DAILY, AND A FEW
DEEP BREATHS.
[AS TOLD TO MOLLY CREEDEN, PHOTOGRAPH BY IAN MADDOX

“When the Japanese migrated to Brazil in the early 19005 [to work on coffee plantations),
my great-grandfather, Gastiio Gracie, welcomed the jujitsu champion of Japan, a man named
Conde Koma. As a gift, Koma taught his children the sport. My grandfather, Helio, was a frail
id, so he had to modify Japanese jujitsu. He couldn't overpower his competitors; instead he
focused on his positioning, and developed what was an explosive martial art of strength into
one based on leverage and technique. This became Brazilian jujitsu. In the late 1980, my
uncle Rorion brought this style to the States. Nowyou can't train in martial arts and get into a
cage and win unless you know Brazilian jujitsu—it teaches you to fight on the ground.
