bjj training

[dreuxscott1]

anyone recommend anything in between bjj sessions for recovery..ive always drinken gatorade but wondering if theres anything better..

Water is all you need IMO. If you are damn near ready to pass out then grab some Gatorade or whatever.

Also maybe have a pro/dex shake. I will look into this more when i start training Muay Thai soon.

Man i appreciate those comments, i feel like an idiot it has been so long since i was on the mat. I thought about posting my thoughts recently, basically i am tired of this bodybuilding lifestyle (it's not me and i am losing motivation lately) and am wanting to get back to training, my god its killing me.

I am about 90% sure i will train strictly Muay Thai since i have trained BJJ since 1999. I need to give up my gym membership first, i can't afford to do both and i would choose MMA over this bodybuilding bullshit anyday.

I trained some MT in the past but not strictly. We had a MT guy and he helped us all during our Vale Tudo classes and we helped him on wrestling and BJJ stuff. I think MT is one of the most brutal Martial Arts there is and i am definately getting psyched thinking about training under this guy from Thailand. Gonna go check the school out ASAP.

I lift to become a better fighter looking good is just a side effect. I have learned so much and love this place but the fighting forum will always be where I spend most of my time

Might be a dumb question but whats a pro/dex shake and whens the best time to take it, right after class?

It is a 2:1 ratio of protein to carbohydrates.

IE: 40g Protein/80g Dextrose

Dextrose is nothing more than Corn Sugar and is used by many as a PWO (Post Workout) shake to shuttle nutrients into the muscle as fast as possible to aid in recovery.

Ahh, thanks. I'll have to try that after next class.

you might even wanna pound your sex shake immediately, then drink a protein shake a half hour later. sometimes after rolling i can get kind of shakey like when you bonk running. carbs alone will get absorbed a little faster.

its just i dont wanna drink the pro/dex right after because after my first session i have another 10 minutes later....i just need something that wont put too much liquid in my body cus i dont wanna throw it up...

Water in between and pro/dex shake after you are finished.
