I partially tore my LCL in July (calf-slifer which was twisted and cranked on, tear revealed by MRI). Currently undergoing physio and probably another few months from feeling confident enough to do BJJ again. I usually play guard/halfguard and relied on reasonable flexibility, which I will...

I'd done the same a few times for amateur mma comps and weighing in the same day i treated it the same as a BJJ tournament. Basically trying to get as close to that weight as possible a few days before the tournament, rather than trying to shed weight the day before, or same day. You simply...

I've been lifting for about a year and half now. Had been following a 5x5 routine and making decent gains, went from 65kg to 75kg in weight while still competing and playing other sports. I'd got to deadlifting 2x bodyweight which I'd been happy with but I noticed my back was rounding a...

oh the guy in Contender Asia was canadian, not euro, oops! But yeah it was Alain Silvestre, and his Crohn's is mentioned a bit here Contender Asia Exclusive There's a thread on a british kickboxing forum where an active fighter discusses her Crohn's and how she manages her training around...

MT - 1 spar session/week BJJ - 3 or 4 rounds at end of every session (2-3/week)

Well i still feel pretty shitty with the cold, but I drew both my fights anyway - not too bad for a beginner ;) Hope you did good dude.

fight at 65kgs nope, not going bald, although shock-horror, all my uncles on the maternal side are bald and ate meat their whole lives - what does this prove? fuck-all, that was genetic.

Would also depend if you're doing it on a bag or just shadow.

MT - 4-5 months after starting BJJ - first class

jjusst take a B12 supplement then or try some marmite

I've been a vegan 8 yrs and I've had no trouble with weight or training or anything. like a few people have said, it's not about whether you're vegan or eat meat that dictateshow fat you are or how much energy you have but rather how clean your diet is and what sort of activities you engage...

MuayThai 3 x 2hr BJJ 2 x 2hr Football (soccer) 1 x 1hr rest x 1 (and usually mix in some swimming/cycling or running if I can't make class)
