Overcoming the Necessary Evil of Weight Cuts

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What is Weight Cut?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Before being allowed into the fighting cage, one may need to shed off extra weight in what is known as weight cut. <a href="http://www.bcmmaa.com/2017/12/bfl-53-jan-13-2018-hardrock-casino-in.html" target="_blank">Chris Anderson did not make it to fight Matt Dwyer at BFL 52</a>. What was the reason? high blood pressure, illness or a harsh weight-cut?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Pain of Weight Cuts</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The body has mechanisms to adjust to changes such as weight. However, too soon a change is never healthy. Most athletes have minimal fat in their bodies to start with. People with more body fat could handle weight cuts better than those with lean bodies. The body uses the reserves in the fat to fuel the body needs during a weight cut, which are less in boxers. The bodybuilding process amasses proteins in the muscles at the expense of fats.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Direct Effects of Weight Cuts</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now that you need to achieve a certain weight through weight cut, it will be justice to know how your body is affected. Dehydration is the commonest adverse event in the process of cutting weight. Coma, multiple organ failure and death may follow. The worst effects happen when you do it too fast.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Overcoming the Hardships</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Be the Early Bird</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The first step in gaining the mental ability to handle weight cuts is to begin early. Avoid binge eating as early as a few months prior to the fight. You need strength inside the ring and therefore pick battles accordingly. Simply adjust and adapt to a working training volume that mirrors the real event.   </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Kill Other Forms of Stress</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is better to deal with dieting alone than to also take care of medical, psychological, or social stressors. Just avoid the avoidable and stick to what you can handle. Don’t meddle in unnecessary affairs when you are in your weight cut program. Avoid drug and alcohol use as much as possible.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Proteins-The Friendly Meal</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Carbohydrates and fats are the foods to watch out for when dieting. They will make your work of attaining the right weight harder. Go for more proteins in the diet. In fact, eat more proteins than the average individual who is not on dieting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Carb Timing</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Ever had a timer to remind you to eat? If not, then you may start considering it. Since you need energy during workouts, you will need to take some carbs. At such times, they won’t do any harm since you eat and burn them immediately.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
More Intra-workout Nutrition</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is the golden tip in weight cuts. It entails having to eat more frequently even when training. By doing this, you convince the body that it does not need to go catabolic (store food). It prevents fatigue during and after training and hence gives you quick recovery.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
With the tips, you can be sure to always attain the weight cuts without much straining. You’ll be better than your opponent, a strong point of confidence in the ring.</div>

The secret to hand injury prevention for strikers!!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IQ0-FX-s4GQ/Wjl6yBW0uSI/AAAAAAAAR2E/W0JPpgxxwlESw91Pe_LPqY_QExmfWMYsACLcBGAs/s1600/DRMAtVQUEAAiae6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="675" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IQ0-FX-s4GQ/Wjl6yBW0uSI/AAAAAAAAR2E/W0JPpgxxwlESw91Pe_LPqY_QExmfWMYsACLcBGAs/s640/DRMAtVQUEAAiae6.jpg" width="360" /></a></div><br />
While boxers are in constant danger of trauma, hand injury is commoner than any other injury in the boxing ring. But one wonders how trauma gets to affect even the most experienced of boxers. What happens? Is it lack of control or is it the adrenaline that makes one throw caution to the wind?<br />
<br />
Regardless of the cause of injury, the boxer has everything at high stakes. The scariest thing is that one may get a severe damage to the hands rendering them unable to ever use them again. The good thing is that such instances are uncommon.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WkVRb3NOg5k/WjhmbAhxWAI/AAAAAAAAR1c/Dhz8KK6-swYTTf1Usc8mPUV_oOstYeIGgCLcBGAs/s1600/maydayimage1_trans_NvBQzQNjv4BqZgEkZX3M936N5BQK4Va8RWtT0gK_6EfZT336f62EI5U.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="300" data-original-width="480" height="250" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WkVRb3NOg5k/WjhmbAhxWAI/AAAAAAAAR1c/Dhz8KK6-swYTTf1Usc8mPUV_oOstYeIGgCLcBGAs/s400/maydayimage1_trans_NvBQzQNjv4BqZgEkZX3M936N5BQK4Va8RWtT0gK_6EfZT336f62EI5U.jpeg" width="400" /></a>Now let’s focus on what is obvious since common things occur more commonly. Michael McDonald’s recent post of a fractured hand recites the fact that such injuries are common in any boxer. The regions that are affected by fractures are those which get exposed to the opponent. That is to say that every time you get to fight, count yourself lucky if you come out with intact bones of the hand, nose, jaws, and ribs.  <br />
<br />
If metacarpal bone fractures were not so common, they would have been named anything else but boxers fracture. That is exactly what Michael who prevailed in his Bellator MMA re-entry suffered from. After a full year of inactivity, the game may not have been as interesting as before.<br />
<br />
Prevention has always proved cure wrong. Why spend time and resources to treat something that is 100 % preventable? Prevention removes you from taking chances with your precious hands. Let’s see what is on the prevention menu!<br />
<br />
Wrap your arms properly- getting the wrapping technique wrong could be why you have trouble winning. Worse still, it is the reason behind your injuries. For the least, get enough space between your knuckles and wrist.<br />
<br />
Exercise more- Ligaments and muscle fibers get stronger when you exercise regularly. They will have more resilience and increase your chances of success. Be specific in exercising in the sense that you need to target muscles and ligaments during the workouts.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DLAgRVJIXAQ/Wjhmri22W9I/AAAAAAAAR1k/mzhMnHrT-6g8HzjjlBv9pgswLJbEwmkBACLcBGAs/s1600/michael-mcdonald-peter-ligier-bellator-1911.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="231" data-original-width="295" height="313" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DLAgRVJIXAQ/Wjhmri22W9I/AAAAAAAAR1k/mzhMnHrT-6g8HzjjlBv9pgswLJbEwmkBACLcBGAs/s400/michael-mcdonald-peter-ligier-bellator-1911.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
Punch accurately- This must have been your lesson 101 in boxing. However, it is worth repetition here. Learn and discharge the right punches so that your wrist gets properly aligned.<br />
<br />
Rest adequately- Working on your techniques and maneuvers without resting is almost useless in adding quality to your life. If you don’t know when to rest pay attention to your body. It will always creak and complain. Follow your instincts and obey that small pain since it may be an indication of something serious.  <br />
<br />
Defend well- Last but not least, maximize on defense. Prevent the impact from reaching you in the first place. Boxers who spend time honing their defenses always go home happy and healthy.<br />
