Spot on.
First time poster.... James Fuller's comments merit a response. As a muscle biologist working in drug discovery, with extensive experience with both training (for other sports) and PED use, you should listen to him.
Don't get caught up with overly technical stuff like muscle fiber type, it's a clusterf*** (trust me, I've been working on a fast twitch drug for a few years now). As James mentioned, cutting weight for MMA is not something that the common "fitness guru" will understand. You won't get a valid science based approach from anyone. It will come down to personal experience, as everyone responds to bf% and weight cuts differently.
As a side note, I wouldn't get too caught up with elite MMA athletes bf%. Trust me, a ton of them are using GH or inducers of GH secretion. They're basically undetectable and have a huge impact on retaining performance while dropping weight.
Dont agree with me. It's bad strategy around here
