Train hard, eat smart. Or is it train smart, eat hard?

Whatever the case, good food choices are key for recovering and resetting from training. Foods rich in magnesium, zinc, calcium, complex carbohydrates, proteins and moderate amounts of monounsaturated and saturated fats should dominate your plate. Despite the absurd marketing of protein in every possible food product, the average American eats well above the RDA, even when athletic activities are accounted for. Getting your vitamins, minerals and protein from whole food sources is recommended, since supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA (until *after* à problem occurs).

Over the weekend, a few members of the MGMA Kickboxing/Muay Thai team took a last minute opportunity to head out to the K1 tournament hosted by Champion Striking and Fitness where everyone had a great time and got some solid experience. Huge thanks to Champion for hosting and being incredibly easy to work with.

If you see Hunter Roche or Al around the gym this week, congratulate them on a job well done.

Please join us in remembering Jeremy Glick, a Judo black belt who led the effort to take back control of flight 93 on 9/11. Glick and several other passengers formulated a plan for attacking the hijackers, which led to the plane crashing in Pennsylvania instead of reaching its intended target. His final words and actions were captured on a phone with his wife- “we’re going to rush the hijackers.” Gick was awarded a posthumous 10th dan by the USJA for his selfless act.

August has been nogi Judo month! Armchair critics always act as if Judo is impossible outside of à gi. In reality, it’s not that drastic of a difference. Practice your tie ups and learn how kuzushi works when pulling and pushing are weighted a little bit differently. Some techniques are actually easier with the more direct control of collar ties and underhooks.
