Hi, I do judo, the weight classes are between 81kg and 73kg and are often the same day weigh-ins, my weight is around 77-78kg, I've been force-feeding myself, 4-5 meals a day, to gain weight but my body doesn't seem to want to increase weight to fight at 81kg. My plan instead would be 4-5 weeks out, to do intermittent fasting, eating a carb-heavy meal before training (usually in the evening) and then a more protein-based meal after for recovery, with the aim of losing max 1kg a week, would you recommend this? It is more than a 5% body weight cut which you recommended, about a 6% body weight, but I would see it more as a leaning-out phase due to starting in advance. Many thanks for any feedback, and the video is great and very informative
Thank you. This isn’t my first weight cut. But North Carolina has this annoying rule of same day mma weight ins. I felt like I was dying the day of the fight.
Thank you for the video! I have a fight in 5 days at 147 lbs and am at 155 😳. This video will help me make weight and keep my strength!

When’s your fight
@@Gymthingz Feb 16 under the promotion “samurai fighting championship”.
@@Jevonsanders I wonder if you will be facing any of the guys on the team. I just joined. Well may see you in the future I’m starting my mma career.
@@Gymthingz i think the guy I’m facing is Jonathan freeman from matrix mma. And if your in North Carolina; there is a chance will meet for sure.
