Jon Bell is a competitor in Freestyle Wrestling, and also trains Brazilian Jiu Jitsu because he was unable to find places to continue his wrestling after returning from Afghanistan. He is now a Purple Belt and trains in and around York, UK.

He is also a Lecturer at Leeds Beckett University and is currently running a Grappling Injury Research Study, where he is trying to further understand injury prevention. Jon is seeing the majority of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu injuries in knees, because of the amount of torque there is in this joint.
