Been a sub for years, following on insta and so on.
This is grade A information regarding nutrition, 10/10 would watch again.

[@whoknows8223]

Uh thats a super nice video topic!!!
Gonna save that.
Could you do more topics on nutrition? What to eat before and after the training?
(I get sleepy after a real hard weighted calisthenics session how can I reduce that?)
What is the macro distribution you would recoomend for a boxer (protein, carbs, fat)?
When and how much to drink?
Drink while training? What and how much to optimize training performance?
How to create a homemade electrolyte drink (sea salt, lemon, ACV, raw honey?)
Please also note that caffeine improves the speed of storage of glycogen in your muscles drastically

I’ll show what my pre/post weigh in ritual is. Given that I fight at 67/71kg and being a comfortable 70/71kg I can have a meal when I wake up in the morning. No need for a ufc style fast lol.
Have a small amount of salmon, chicken, avocado and egg when I wake up.
- lucazade, rice pudding (jam), cereal bar straight after weigh in…
Gradually stretch and be relaxed, having a nap and then come back to life around 45 minutes before to have my coffee and gummy bears and a bite of an apple. I’ll start chewing gum as well.
Then I start playing some hype tunes and fast pasted dynamic movements to get a slight sweat on. Also start getting into that fighter mindset.
Let me know if this is good and what to improve? I’m not a nutritionist but I think this is okay.

Your pre/post weigh-in routine seems comprehensive and well-structured. However, there are a few minor adjustments you could consider to further optimize it:
1. **Hydration**: While you mentioned consuming fluids like Lucazade and coffee, it's crucial to stay adequately hydrated throughout the day. Drinking plenty of water before and after weigh-in can help maintain your energy levels, muscle function, and mental clarity.
2. **Protein intake**: Protein is essential for muscle repair and recovery, especially after strenuous activities like fighting. Ensuring you're consuming enough protein throughout the day, including post-weigh-in, can help support muscle maintenance and recovery.
3. **Sleep**: A good night's sleep before weigh-in and the fight can make a significant difference in your energy levels and focus. While a nap can be helpful, prioritizing quality sleep the night before can provide additional benefits.
4. **Mental preparation**: In addition to playing hype music and performing dynamic movements, you could consider incorporating some mental techniques like visualization, positive affirmations, or breathing exercises to enhance focus and calmness before the fight.

[@michaelhalliday395]

How would a super heavyweight (91kg plus) compare? Cutting wouldn’t affect them would it?

[@jamesanderson6856]

The drink youes holiding in the thumbnail the chocolate recovery shake, is that good ?

[@kingofthering3343]

It's good for recovery after a fight. Not something to consume beforehand.
