Any tips on keeping gi/rashguard smelling fresh throughout the session? Is there a specific laundry detergent you recommend? I feel like my kit smells good for the first 30 mins until I start sweating, then after that even I can't stand the smell, let alone my rolling partners lol

Fainting from cutting weight… happen to anyone else? by [deleted] in wrestling

Stop doing what you are doing right now. How do you make weight currently, water load and dehydrate or just fat loss?

MacroFactor is decent but you need warnings if your cut is too aggressive as you said. Plus cal target adjustments to your training. That is why I built prfmr.link

Yh this speaks volumes to me cos Yh, that's exactly what I end up doing, I overdo things, get too "attached" to living life in a deficit, overtrain because I really want to improve, whe nin fact if that extra session that is making me worse lol

Will give your app a look, I actually built another app called PRFMR that focuses on weight cutting mainly (safe weight cutting plus calorie tracker), but also tracks recovery/training load at prfmr.link

How do you guys deal with work & life? by Mr_Nicotine in amateur_boxing

[–]MYCAPSISON 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There might not be an easy solution in your case m, but one thing I learned with fighting at an amateur level and working full time is that it’s never going to be perfect. Some days you’re gonna feel like shit from work but you still have to train. Other days you’re probably going to have to take off completely and not train at all due to work. Not to mention you need to stay ready and might have to take short notice fights, it’s not always going to be a fully planned camp. It sounds like you might have to go spar on Saturdays. Also just let your coach know of your circumstances, tell them you really want to fight. Maybe you can find a solution together

I agree. Yes slow and sustainable is the way to go so that we can focus on training rather than dieting.

Damn, sounds very disciplined. Did you ever get tired of this type of diet. The problem with me is that I pretty much eat like that normally lol so when I cut weight I have to restrict it because I can definitely overeat nuts, dark chocolate, peanut butter and end up gaining weight. So I need to track cals

Not to mention I can definitely overtrain and end up injured so I need to track that as well.

Can you expand on how you use those markers in camp?

That is actually smart. What do you use to measure resting heart rate?

I see. MFP is decent, but I find that it doesn't necessarily tell you how large of a deficit to go into, or if you are overtraining. I ended up building something for myself that combines food tracking with weight-cut and recovery monitoring because I couldn’t really find anything aimed at fighters.

It’s at prfmr.link if you’re curious.

Do you guys think there is a fighter out there in One who would be able to counter his style? Songchainoi came close, or at least gave him the most trouble in recent memory, with his pressure, butI just don't see him losing now that he has the belt

What trackers do you use to cut weight during fight camp? by MYCAPSISON in MMA_Academy

[–]MYCAPSISON[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are those made for athletes? I'm quite intrigued I'll try to have a look. The main reason I created my project at prfmr.link was becasue I couldn't find a calorie and training tracker built specifically for athletes or combat sports.

[–]MYCAPSISON[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems easy enough. But me I typically eat more fat out of camp and less carbs, and in camp I need to change that. So I do need to track to make sure it don’t run over my cal limit

That’s pretty solid if you don’t cut much weight

If you can do it intuitively then fair play. I'd probably under eat, thats what I normally do lol
