He's back! Good to have a rare appearance from Nathan on the podcast :)

This week we spoke about maintenance / post fight

Some science , some practical stuff and a lot of side tracking- but its packed with thought provoking nuggets!

In this weeks podcast I covered the topics of refeeds and diet breaks.

What they are

How they work

And when you should use them

Definitely a useful tool to have for both in camp and out of camp!

This week we looked at Hydration tests and Multiple day weigh ins. We discussed the ins and outs of the hydration tests, the issues with it , and how people rig it .

We also talked around how to set up a multiple day weigh in cut and how to manage things to weigh in on consecutive days

This week we talked about all of the things that can impact your weight .

We looked at the difference between fat loss and weight loss and why you shouldn't panic and cut calories unless needed !

This was a bit ranty (not randy) ..... But some stuff needed to be said .

We covered why its important to not completely blow the arse out of it over the next few months, and why taking some control over your diet will give you an advantage in the new year.

This week we just chatted over a few topics . Xmas as a fighter, travelling for fights , in person cuts , nightmare weight cuts and Nathans struggles with alcohol over the weekend.

We continued on this week with a few common misconceptions around dieting and weight cutting .

This week we covered a number of common misconceptions around cutting weight and dieting .

This week we talked a bit about whether or not cutting more weight, and being a bigger fighter benefits you or not.

We spoke about the latest data coming out of the UFC PI and what they found in high level MMA athletes.

A lot of fighters report that they get sick during camp, when in fight week or even after fights
