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,
