They lose because their body ran out of fuel before the fight even got hard.
You know that heavy-leg, foggy-head feeling in round 2?
That’s not just nerves.
That’s your breakfast being wrong.
Here’s what most fighters do:
❌ Eat nothing before training
❌ Or eat the wrong thing (heavy, slow, random)
❌ Or eat too close and feel sick mid-round
And then wonder why they’re crashing 5 minutes in.
The right pre-training meal isn’t a protein shake or last minute snack.
It’s timed, light, carb-based, and tested.
In fight camp, this is the meal that decides:
Whether your legs are still under you
Whether your brain stays sharp
Whether you look good on pads or just survive them
I break it all down in the Fighters Cookbook.
It’s not theory — it’s meals, structure, and fuel timing made for fighters, by fighters.
If you’re training hard but still feel flat… this is where you fix it.

Train smart,
