    I found the petroleum jelly will only hold so much of the Epi before it just does not mix anymore. As for the other coagulents don't mix them at all. This reminds me of something that happened at the fight At the instructions before the fight we were told that anytime we remove something from...

    Cutman Tales

    As far as I know these are not allowed in fights. Even the OTC nosebleed stuff was yanked from my bag. Better go online to make sure. To my knowledge all that is allowed is Adrenaline 1:1000, Avatene and Thrombin. In mma matches I think the need for Thrombin might not come into play...

    Thanks a ton guys. Like I said it was a learning experience. If anyone wants to be a cutman you must understand it is not a glorious role. It is stressfull and you better be on your game and understand the fighter your working with. Make sure to ask if they have had any cuts previously and...

    Cutman Tales

    Wanted to get a debrief from all the guys before I posted. Fights went ok. First fight I didn't corner. It was called by the ref in the second because our fighter did not respond after being told to improve. It was hard for him to give a thumbs up with both hands defending a RNC. It was an odd...

    New update *** At the weigh in I decided to make my way over to the ringside official and introduce myself. The Doc apparently trains in BJJ and had a ton of respect for my Gym and it's grappling pedigree. When I asked her about the Epi/Adrenaline she was kind of curious how a lot of cutman...

    Put the word out to a cutman for hire here was his response. First of all I would like to thank you for checking out cutman4hire.com. The only medication that I use when a fighter is cut is adrenaline 1:1000. When I first started as a cutman I didnt have it available to me so I would use...

    Cutman Tales

    Here is an update. I talked to the nurse that worked at the walk in clinic that does our stitches. She acted like I asked her to score me some sweet black tar heroin. Obviously a no go. Put a call in to the boxing commision to try and find a Ringside doc that might be in the area. I could hear...

    Ok, so due to my limited background in first-aid I have been asked to work cuts for some of our fighters. I am having a difficult time obtaining the coagulants allowed by our states boxing comission adrenaline,avatene and thrombine. Anyone know how to go about getting these? I'm going to ask...

    GNC: Beta Alanine's used to get blood pumping..

    I never said he was an idiot just saying that neither are ALL GNC employees. However you could make an argument that a lot are.

    GNC: Beta Alanine's used to get blood pumping..

    I work at GNC (granted only 4 hours a week) but I know what I'm talking about. Read some of my posts. Blanket statements about anyone are 50% wrong 100% of the time :icon_conf Although this one in question is clearly an idiot. BA is going to be the next big thing right up there with creatine...

    How to finally solve your conditioning problem

    Joel, I have a question about something you stated in a previous post. You mentioned ADHD medicine having an effect on trianing. Which after seeing that I thought DUH! I have a guy who has a higher than expected HR prior to each session. However he has been an athlete for a while and could not...

    Improving Recovery

    I don't know about your recovery drink but it should have about .8 grams of dextrose per kilo of lean body mass. Try some light sled dragging a couple times a week.

    Opinion of heart rate?

    Take a look at EZA's post on HOW TO FINALLY SOLVE YOUR CONDITIONING PROBLEM. There is so much to take into account that no one can (or probably be willig to ) explain all you need to know. EZA did a great job and touched on the most important aspects. A great place to look is cyclist training...
