Wanting to learn more martial arts, she began training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in February 2014. Quickly becoming an avid and tough competitor in BJJ. After numerous accolades, Lyzz received her Black Belt in March 2019 under Dustin Akbari. You'll usually find her on the mats at Precision Jiu-Jitsu Academy teaching and training, going for Gold in BJJ competitions, spending time with her Lovely Husband and cats or pursuing her other obsessions of Kombucha and Tabletop Gaming.

In this episode, I’m expounding on how to utilize post-workout nutrition to improve your recovery.

Here’s the scenario: You've just completed a very intense 90 minute strength and conditioning workout and/or a high intensity competition class and your body is tired but also hungry and is primed for calories. Now that your muscles have been broken down and your gas tank is empty, the window of opportunity to refill is closing and depending on when you consume your post workout calories, could determine where your body will breakdown more muscle than it repairs. Enter post-workout nutrition.
