The twin brothers joined ONE Championship last year and have taken the promotion by storm.

In just a short time, the 20-year-old fighters have become among the faces of submission grappling in ONE. In fact, Kade Ruotolo became the ONE lightweight submission grappling world champion in just his second outing back in October.

The extensive training they are getting at Atos Jiu-Jitsu under the guidance of Brazilian jiu-jitsu legend and fellow ONE fighter Andre Galvao has done wonders in advancing their careers.

But in a recent Ask Me Anything (AMA) session on Reddit hosted by ONE Championship, Tye Ruotolo and his brother Kade shared that it is not all work for them. They also make room to allow their bodies to recover from all the training they do apart from pursuing other passions like surfing and skating.

In answering one of the fans who asked about their rest days and recovery methods, the two said:

“We rest about three times a week, that being active recovery. Our number one tool is foundation training, we also love cryotherapy and acupuncture for extra help.”

The next few months will see the Ruotolo twins return to action.
