What To Eat Before, During & After Training (For Maximum Gains & Recovery)

In this episode of the Settlage Strength Podcast, I break down exactly what to eat before, during, and after training so you can build strength, recover faster, and feel your best on the mats.

Most grapplers are either skipping meals, slamming energy drinks, or trying the latest YouTube diet trend—and it's wrecking their recovery.

This episode gives you a simple, proven nutrition framework I use with all my 1-on-1 athletes to fuel hard training, reduce soreness, and build serious muscle.

Whether you're training 2x/day or just trying to avoid gassing out at open mat, this episode gives you the exact protocols to dial in your food, timing, and supplements for real results.
