Combat Sport & Weight Management

Safe, structured, performance-preserving weight management for athletes who compete in weight-class sports. Done right — not harmfully.

You should never have to destroy yourself to make weight.

This is the practice's signature specialization, and it is personal. As a high-performance athlete with direct experience navigating weight management in competitive sport, your coach has seen firsthand how weight cutting can go wrong — and what it costs athletes physically, mentally, and competitively when it does.

This program is built on one conviction: safe, structured weight management means arriving at competition as the strongest, most capable version of yourself. Not depleted, not dehydrated, not running on fumes. Athletes who fuel properly through the process perform better — full stop.

The program runs across your entire competitive season, not just the final two weeks before weigh-ins. It includes everything from the off-season baseline through to the post-weigh-in refueling plan for competition day — and every step in between.

What's Included

  • Full review of weight history, competition schedule, and current cutting approach
  • Individualized weight management protocol: safe rate of loss, realistic targets, and timelines
  • Full-season nutrition periodization — not just pre-competition
  • Daily and weekly fueling plans that preserve muscle mass and performance capacity
  • Hydration strategy for weight management and peak performance
  • Pre-weigh-in protocol for the final 24–48 hours
  • Post-weigh-in rehydration and refueling plan for competition day
  • Education on the physical and mental risks of unsafe cutting
  • Mental health check-ins throughout the season
  • Post-season recovery nutrition plan to rebuild after competition

A Note on Safety

  • Maximum safe rate of weight loss is 0.5–1% of body weight per week — any faster and you are losing muscle and compromising performance
  • This program will never recommend methods that are unsafe, extreme, or harmful
  • If a cut becomes unsafe, there is a clear protocol — athlete health always takes priority over making weight
  • Mental health is monitored throughout — weight cutting has psychological consequences that are just as real as the physical ones
