[Scott Stevenson]

Hello everybody!

I’ve recently bought both fortitude training and BYOBBC, while I love to lift I also do mma after reading through the books I see some things I can definitely use now and in the future. I was curious if you(Dr. Stevenson) had worked with anyone doing MMA. I already use nutrient timing which I find very beneficial. Do you think your water manipulation strategy would work for someone in a situation where I’d want to make weight then quickly put the weight back on? I know the book said if you are to flat going into the manipulation it could not work so that is what I am concerned with. I don’t have anything in the immediate future and definitely would run a trial. But was just curious if you had any experience or small tips on things you would change!

Thanks in advance!!

I've had one client in particular who is high level (black belt now) in BJJ who rolled during his entire preps with me.

YEs, the strategies would work, but I'm not going to give any suggestions without knowing your situation. (The peak week strategy there is for someone training int eh gym as a bodybuilder, not doing MMA, so the entire weeks' training would be VERY different. It's all a matter of timing wrt weigh in, etc. - Really no specific tiny tips can be given that I'd feel would be appropriate without context. )
