MMA Fighter Supplements

The Ultimate Fighting Championship, Elite XC, and other Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) competitions place unique demands on its athletes. Competitors in such events are required not only to be in top physical shape but also to bring a wide variety of skills to the table including Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai Kickboxing, and Wrestling. What this means for the athlete is that his diet has to be formulated in a way that allows maximum performance in a variety of different sports with different demands.

The structure of MMA training also places unique demands on the diet of an athlete. Maryland MMA trainer, Lloyd Irvin, has his professional fighters training four sessions a day. These sessions are relatively short, 1-2 hours, and can be hard “banging” days to technical sessions which involve hitting the mitts or working on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu techniques. Other MMA training programs use longer workouts but limit them to two per day. Obviously, the demands of boxing for 12 rounds will be very different than drilling Brazilian Jiu Jitsu movements on the ground and the diet of each athlete should reflect that.
