Most fighters are cooking instead of cutting 😩
If your sauna is over 160°F — you’re not cutting weight…
You’re frying your recovery. ⚠️

✅ Ideal sauna temp for fight week cuts: 140–160°F

That’s where you sweat efficiently without risking heat exhaustion. 🥵

Recover smarter. Cut cleaner. Perform better. 💪

“Wait — I thought doing something over and over causes injury?” 🤔
Yes… and no. 😅

Repetitive motion can cause injury —but only if you’re not recovering or cross-training.

When you balance load + recovery 💪you build resilience, not breakdown.

So don’t fear the reps — just manage the stress. 🥊

Final fight camp prep 👊 — here’s what it actually looks like to work with me:
💪 Taper training without losing your edge
💧 Smart water loading + weight cut strategies
🥗 Nutrition tweaks (fiber, sodium, carbs — the real talk)
⚡ Recovery + rehydration plans that get you back fast

We take the guesswork out of fight week.

Just clear direction, smart programming, and support that gets you ready to perform.

DM me “FIGHT READY” if you want in on the same system we use with our athletes at Move Forward Performance 🥊

The USDA says “active” = walking 3 miles per day. 🚶‍♀️
We say “active” = 3 hours of sparring, pad work, and drilling. 🥊

Not. The. Same. Thing. 😂

So yeah… your calorie needs are probably higher than the label suggests.
Fuel for your reality, not the USDA’s definition of active.

Fighters always ask if strength training or mobility work will make them slow. The answer? No.

Done right, lifting makes you faster, more explosive, and harder to hurt. Mobility is just strength through range — think high kicks and hip turns. 🥊

If your strength training is built for combat sports, you’re not getting bulky or stiff. You’re getting fight-ready.

Fighters always ask: ‘Will strength training make me bulky?’

Truth is, in combat sports it’s highly unlikely. The way fighters train just doesn’t support easy bulk — it supports speed, power, and fight performance. 🥊

Mobility isn’t about being bendy… it’s about strength through range of motion 💪That’s how fighters kick harder, hit hard...

Mobility isn’t about being bendy… it’s about strength through range of motion 💪

That’s how fighters kick harder, hit harder, and move sharper. 🥊

“Do I need to run 10K every day like they do in Thailand?” 🏃‍♂️
Short answer: nope.
Long answer: it depends on how you train.

In Thailand, they’re hitting pads for hours.
Here, most fighters are in shorter classes — so you’ll need some cardio work outside of that.
Sometimes that means long runs.
Sometimes that means sprint work.

Either way — your conditioning should match your fight, not the myth 💥

Your body doesn’t just need calories — it needs nutrients. 💊

We care about:
⚡ How much energy food gives us
💪 How many nutrients we get out of it

That’s nutrient density — and it’s what separates “just eating” from fueling to perform. 👊

Strength training doesn’t slow fighters down — it makes you faster, more explosive, and harder to break. 🥊

Fighters — this one hurts to hear 😔
But the biggest mistake I see every camp?
No real recovery plan.

You’re training like a machine 💪
…but never slowing down to actually recover.
That’s when tight calves, sore Achilles, and foot pain start showing up.

Train hard. Recover harder 🥊

Not with the amount of cardio you’re doing.

Bag work, pads, sparring, endless rounds… all that makes adding mass way harder. 💪

Combat sports = too much cardio for easy bulk. 🥊
