    Ep 11 Jordi Sullivan: The Fight Dietitian

    Combat sports is not for everyone. Getting punched, kicked, knee'd, elbowed, slammed, choked, and getting your body twisted in thousands of different ways is truly not a profession for an ordinary person. Not to mention it being a weight category sport where athletes are cutting large amounts of weight, depleting their bodies of nutrients and water, all in order to make a certain number on the scale. Usually this takes place a day before fighting for their lives against another trained opponent in front of a huge live audience. Talk about modern day gladiators! While weight cutting has been around the combat sports scene for awhile, people like Jordi Sullivan who are dedicated to finding the most optimal way to fuel combat sports athletes and lead them through a weight cut in the most efficient way possible, are a new breed. Jordi, AKA "The Fight Dietitian" is the dietitian for top names in the MMA scene like Israel Adesanya, Alexander Volkanovski, Dan Hooker, Kai-Kara France  Leon Edwards, and many more. In this podcast episode, Jordi and I discuss many topics that all combat sports athletes need to hear. Whether you do boxing, muay thai, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, or a variety of them all, you should listen to this episode to learn about what it takes to properly fuel yourself towards the path of greatness, victory, and longevity. Jordi and I discuss weight cuts, the dangers of weight cutting but how to do it properly, fighters nutrition, and many other great topics that will help you learn how to train smarter.

    Episode 10 Monique Ong: Waking Up From a Coma

    Imagine waking up from a coma with tubes coming out of your mouth and brain, barely able to speak, walk, hold your head up, or even use the bathroom. Then imagine being told by the doctors that you damaged your brain so badly that you will never be able to live life like how you used to. This was a real life experience for one of my kickboxing students and my next podcast guest Monique Ong. Monique is the chairman of The Mind Nation which is a company that advocates for providing total mental healthcare to employees. She is also a survivor of TBI or Traumatic Brain Injury. Monique shares her story of how a simple night of dinner and drinks with a friend led to her slipping, falling, hitting her head, and ending up in a coma for 21 days. During this pandemic, people have began to realize how important mental health is for overall health. I truly believe that hearing Monique's story will inspire people to be able to overcome any difficulties and will teach people to be more mindful of the power of words. Listen to the full episode to hear her story and wisdom for people suffering from mental health issues.

    Episode 8: Alexa Eisenberg Diet Tips From a Dietician

    "Get from where you are, to where you want to be with your health goals." This is the motto of Alexa Eisenberg. My latest guest Alexa Eisenberg is a registered dietitian who runs her own business helping clients achieve their nutritional goals. Alexa has experience working with eating disorders, disordered eating, and has even been the dietician of the Ulitimate Fighting Championship Perofrmance Institute. I stumbled upon Alexa while listening to The Fight Science Podcast episode where Alexa was discussing proper nutrtional strategies for combat sports athletes. The amount of information Alexa shared during the podcast episode was both plentiful and powerful. I wanted to get her as a guest on my show as well in order to share her immense knowledge of proper nutrition to all of my listeners. I genuinely believe that if people can educate themselves and develop good habits with their health, specifically their nutrition, then people can begin operating in a much healthier and optimal state. Nutrition can be a tricky subject for many people. If you want to educate yourself about proper nutritional strategies and be entertained at the same time with awesome dance moves, be sure to give Alexa a follow on TikTok and IG @alexaeiseberg.rd Alexa shares many golden nuggets of wisdom on this podcast episode so be sure to have a pen and paper to take notes! Thanks again Alexa for your time! It was a super fun conversation that we had and I am very grateful to have connected with you. Please continue to use your awesome dance moves to educate the masses on how to eat right! 😁💪
