Weinhofen is one of a growing number of famous musicians who have fallen in love with jiu-jitsu over the years. In fact, Five Finger Death Punch guitarist Zoltan Bathory earned his BJJ black belt back in March after thirteen years of training. If Weinhofen keeps it up, he’ll be there before he knows it, too.
