In this episode, we sit down with Abdelrahman Lachize, a third-year medical student with a passion for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Born in Syria to a French-Syrian family, Abdelrahman’s journey has taken him from Lyon to Jeddah and now Riyadh, a city he proudly calls home.
We dive into his story—how his father introduced him to Jiu-Jitsu in eighth grade, his progression to a blue belt, and his defining moment on the mat: an intense match against "The Hulk," where he overcame the odds with a perfectly executed triangle choke.
Beyond the sport, we explore his life as a medical student and how discipline from martial arts shapes his approach to challenges in medicine and beyond.
Join us for an inspiring conversation about resilience, passion, and the pursuit of excellence—both in the hospital and on the mats.
