Conor's nutritionist, George Lockhart

[Bitchka]

On UFC 202 Embedded, Episode 1, Conor's nutritionist says this...

"Right now, we'll probably cut back on the carbs a little bit..it's not that he's cutting weight, but actually carb loading...it kinda tricks the body into being more efficient with the glycogen storages...so, give him a high fat diet, make sure that he's feeling good this last week."

Huh? Cutting back on carbs, but actually carb loading?!?
...if I had a dime for every time I heard, "it tricks the body"

Barbecue honey chicken with slices of avocado...sounds like Conor is doing a shit load of cardio, but trying to maintain his 170 weight. George tells Conor he's glad he's hungry again. I wonder how often he's eating?

Lockhart knows way more than us random sherbros. He's the best in the game.

Nutritionists = scam, just like 'movement coaches'

No lol. Brolce = scam, he's not an actual nutritionist. Lockhart learned his trade in the military fueling America's finest. That's the guy I want in charge of my food before a fight.

On a scale of 1-10 I wonder how tricked/confused/bamboozled Conor's body is?

It's possible for sure. Let's see his eyes Friday night, that will tell the whole story

He'd blow his wad in your yogurt for BCAA supercharging purposes

It's not even close. The man got Florian to 145 and he went 5 rounds with Aldo without gassing out.

Lol no, he's not. He's an actual nutritionist unlike a guy like Brolce. He is the most respected in all of MMA by a long shot.

It's not a scam. Body biochemistry can be hacked in many ways, nutrition being one, and it goes well beyond your usual "cut carbs & up the protein intake" blurb. Just because it's not removed from the domain of common knowledge by the same level of barriers as quantum physics doesn't mean that it isn't a worthy science. And it's mature enough a science that If it were a scam no professional team or athlete would have staff specializing in nutrition.

is he that dork in the park? The one with the ponytail?
