On this episode, Chewy discusses his diet, how eating the right foods, and how "meal timing" can help with performance on the mats.

We also chat about macronutrients and how needs fluctuate based on your activity, when to eat fats, how not eating too long before training will impact your performance, what to eat before training and what to eat when not training, how to use your food to help recover more quickly after a tough training session, Chewy's preferred diet prior to training, what to eat in the mornings, how Chewy utilizes dextrose powder, what to eat between matches, how to avoid a sugar crash, and avoiding diet trends.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
