JIU JITSU AND NUTRITION
Lets look at JIU JITSU and NUTRITION.
This can be a really complex subect. Im ust !oin! hit on
the "e# points that are true #hether your !oals are
competition "ocused$ sel"%de"ense "ocused$ "itness "ocused$
increase per"ormance "ocused$ doesnt matter these
principles are true across the board.
&irst$ !et more protein. I" youre doin! JIU JITSU youre an
acti'e person. (oure an athlete and$ on your trainin! days atleast$ you should be thinkin! about !ettin! a !ram o" protein
per pound o" lean body mass.
The second thin! I #ant you to pay attention to$ is #hat kind
o" carbs youre !ettin!. )arbs are not bad. In "act$ you need
them. Its the simple$ processed carbs that are the issue.
*asically$ you #ant thin!s that ha'ent been !round up into
"lours. &oods that are as close to the real$ #hole thin! as
you can !et. So$ "oods like #hole !rains #ith exception o"
rice. Rice is still pretty simple and you #ant to dod!e that
one.
No# the reason "or this is$ carbohydrates are one o" the most
readily accessible "uels you ha'e.
(ou #ant to think about your metabolism like a steadyburnin! "ire. (oure al#ays "eedin! it #ith di""erent "uels. The
proteins and "ats are slo# burnin! and smolderin! thin!s.
The carbs are !oin! to burn "ast and !i'e you sur!es o"
ener!y.

No#$ you #ant thin!s are !oin! burn "ast but not too "ast.
I" its a processed carbohydrate source$ its like thro#in!
!asoline on the "ire. There #ill be a bi! "lare up and then its
!one.
)hoose steady burnin! "uel instead "or better results.
The "inal detail you #ant to think about is timin! o" your
meals.
+'erythin! you consume is !oin! to become accessible
about an hour so a"ter you consumed it. So dont eat ri!ht
be"ore trainin!. ,i'e yoursel" a little bit o" time "or the "ood
to !et in into your blood stream and time your trainin!
around that. Itll also #ay more "un to roll in JIU JITSU and be
s-uashed into a ball i" your stomach isnt "ull o" "ood.
I" your #ork out is really intense$ plan on ha'in! some
carbohydrates and protein shortly a"ter the #ork out. (ou can
do it in drink "orm or you ust can eat some "ruit and some
almond butter.
Those #ere all !ood action points. /ick one o" them and do it
this #eek. 0hether thats only eatin! complex carbs$ eatin!
enou!h protein$ or timin! your meals appropriately. Just
chan!e one 'ariable track it "or a #eek to see #hat it does "or
you. Then chan!e the next$ then chan!e the next. One at time
and enoy the results. Take care.
