The Combathlete's Ultimate Guide to Safe and Self-Directed Weight Cuts is a full 47-page guide that teaches you everything you need to know about cutting weight...properly. So many combat athletes just completely butcher their weight cuts. Not eating for days at a time, trying to crash the weight off. Unsure of when to eat carbs, or avoiding them completely. Confusion around eating foods that contain sodium, or when to ditch the fibre. At the extreme end of the spectrum, getting it so wrong, they end up in hospital, on the verge of kidney failure. You name it, we've seen the plethora of mistakes that combat athletes make with their weight cuts. And you can't even begin to compete at your best if you don't make weight. This guide, however, will help you do it properly, whether you have same-day weigh-ins, or a 24-48 hour time window - we have got you covered. This ebook is written by our very own, professional, and qualified Sports Nutritionist, Coach Jana.

Today I posted about Alexandr Karelin, The Russian Experiment with a record of 887 wins, 2 losses. For sure, he was competing for the Soviet Block when they were literally bathing in steroids, but that's not the point. Here's what you can learn and apply to your own training, when we look at the case study that is Karelin; - Compound lifts (multi-joint) get you strong as fuck. Training by 'muscle-group' doesn't. For the love of the suplex, follow a programme built for your combat sports performance. Not for Hyrox, Crossfit, Bodybuilding, Powerlifting, or otherwise. This is an important one. You should be aiming for a minimum of 2 compound lifts, per session, per week if you want to build mutant strength. An easy classification that we use all the time is; Day 1 = Squat Variation, Horizontal Push Variation, Vertical Pull Variation Day 2 = Hip Hinge Variation, Vertical Push Variation, Horizontal Pull Variation - Now you need to LOAD those compound lifts accordingly, to build strength there. During the Base Strength phase, work between 65-82.5% of your Predicted 1 Rep Max. During the Max. strength phase, work between 70-90% of your Predicted 1 Rep Max. And during the Power phase, work between 60-80% of your Predicted 1 Rep Max. (This is an over-simplification, but it gives you an idea of what intensities you need to be thinking about in your programming if you actually want to get somewhere with your gains.) - You need to prioritise your RECOVERY as much as your training. Read that again. The best way to stay on top of this, is start TRACKING your workloads each week. How much S&C are you actually doing each week? How many hours of skills training do you turn up for and complete each week? How many rest days do you take each week? 90% of combat sports athletes completely wing this part of their training schedule, and wonder why, 15 years later when they look back, they never made it to the top, despite having all the 'talent'.
