My Favorite "Pre Workout" To Drink Before BJJ Training

[@Sqooshy96]

Carb-phobia is terrible for performance and longevity. Smash in the complex carbs and fibre

[@sirpibble]

I feel great on low carb, very alert and steady.....as long as I'm not working out at all I can't even get through a warm up without carbs

[@clayton8536]

I think people that are typically doing the low carb thing are also doing low cal - they need to eat more fats to supplement the lack of carbs.. need fuel

[@phillipmorgan1198]

Funny everyone is taking caffeine/uppers. I have been taking mood relaxers prior to class. I fall into that zen much faster and am able to process more methodically.

[@dan_thesaint]

As an Italian who eats pasta every day, I find low carb to be sacrilegious

[@Chewjitsu]

😂

[@luisschwab]

Mikey?

[@willb169]

Thanks for this video. There's not too many videos specifically on this topic for grappling. I've been taking 2-3 hour classes and completely bonking out (carb crashing) to the point my body has been cramping, complete exhaustion and my brain can't think well. Hydration and electrolytes are good so I assumed must be simple carb deleting. Glad to hear you're a fan. I know body builders use it for long hard workouts and I figured that would be similar but also trying to drop unnecessary body fat. Looks pretty inexpensive and worth giving a try. Appreciate you

[@Delltah1]

Chewie your style of talking to the camera reminds me of Eliot Hulse. Has he been an inspiration to you? You’re both very knowledgeable and straight to the point. And you’re both experts in your field.

[@deaddreamnomad]

I don't even need pre workout. Just wanna say thanks for the content. Joining a gym is probably the best decision I've ever taken. I don't think I would've had the nerve if it wasn't for this channel, thanks :)

[@lastactionhero7541]

I’m pretty consistent with a low carb/keto diet. Once my body made the transition from carbs to burning fat for energy the lethargy went away.

[@travisrivas5298]

Chewy with the low key shout to the Scarecrow of Doom. Getting them triangles while hopped up on dextrose. Ha!

[@zidaneuddin]

Is my diet “AFFECTING” my training

[@lynnmason7509]

Great info

[@clinicallydepressedcat3497]

I used to be reliant on coffee or energy drink before training. I could not perform unless i had it. Now im happy to just have something to eat beforehand instead

[@TheMatthewHartley]

How soon before training would you take dextrose? Been experimenting with pre training nutrition and have my last meal now 3 hours before training, just some museli and milk but seems like adding a dextrose supplement in soon before might help even more.

[@arianrezaie4729]

Where can I ask questions? If you read these comments firstly big fan secondly I whant to know grapling but becouse of covid I cant so is there any tips any grip stringth exercises or any other exercises I can do so in a year when corona is over I would not be at an absolute beginner? And lastly why is there no BJJ in my country(Iran) is it becouse Iranians are relatively poor and BJJ is more centrelized than other sports?

[@milankoda1]

Say you lift in the morning then train BJJ at night. Do you use it before BJJ at night or after you lift in the morning?

[@JustinBorel]

1/4 cup of oats, 1 spoon of agave nectar or hunny,1 banana, 12 oz of coconut milk..almond milk...any nut milk 1 hour before. As a former pre workout protein powder junkie I came to realize, for me it was a waste, eat.real.food

[@tekal85]

The way you sneaked in that advertisment, lol

[@Chewjitsu]

theOneAndOnly 😂 just sharing.

[@huseyinguler3969]

Should We use it before bjj training rolling?

[@mexicanachulax3]

I am sensitive to caffeine and pre workout. I had to find thd perfect pre workout snack. I eat a peace of toast with almond butter, chia seeds, some honey and a banana on the side.

[@Chewjitsu]

Gabby V that’s why I use the carb powder if I need it. No caffeine.

[@cameroon95]

Do you have any recommendations for an intra drink ? Like Inbeyween rounds etc - I usually drink a bcaa liquid

[@OneNvrKnoz]

Look into the scientific studies on BCAAs. Not all they are cracked up to be. Use what Chewy just suggested. It’s basically sugar and salt; the two things your body loses during hard training

[@shahree100]

A coffee before class goes a long way.

[@daa589]

And in life 🤣

[@TheProdigy260592]

Yes - used to do a regular sized coffee but then moved to a piccolo

[@Chewjitsu]

I do a little coffee before and a little after. But I keep the dose rather small.

[@lobsterairsoft499]

Why do you multiply your bodyweight x2 to get how many grams of carbs you can eat

[@manuelvieira3804]

Whtas je the name of the preworkout

[@jmieles1983]

What is your thought on Rice for carb source?

[@Chewjitsu]

DIELECTRIC83 great carb source. Super easy to digest. I usually have 1-2 cups of rice on training days.

[@andre.monteiro2308]

and how about beta alanine?

[@chaserohwedder8852]

Redcon total war pre workout. 😎

[@Chewjitsu]

I'm not a fan of caffeine in pre workouts.

[@chaserohwedder8852]

Chewjitsu I honestly only take half a serving. Otherwise I feel a little jittery. It helps when I’m really dragging.

[@Morganwmahan]

My pre-workout is in my head. Its LSD. I have LSD in my head.

[@gbs_mason]

How can I be like you ?

[@Morganwmahan]

@@gbs_mason try apples. They are not as strong as lsd but you can get them at the store.

[@Communistgun]

That’s a loooot of protein dude must be a heavyweight

[@Morpheah]

225 grams of protein in a single pre-workout shake? Does David not have any protein at all in any of his other meals, or has he chosen to ignore all current scientific literature?!

[@Chewjitsu]

No. 225grams for the day. Not in one shake That'd be awful.

[@Morpheah]

@@Chewjitsu Ohhh fucking hell mate, that was quite the misunderstanding! I was pre-occupied with my dog and just had the video playing in the background, so I thought you were reading the macros of his pre-workout because of the title. David's protein intake sounds spot-on then!

[@FR-ty5vn]

Chewjitsu 😳😆😆😆

[@poppy61424]

Do you still own derby city

[@jose-qp4yz]

idk why but the title animation is triggering my trypophobia

[@Chewjitsu]

Haha.

[@dustincrane8835]

same

[@0fficer_friendly]

I just have a can of coke

[@thelurker9472]

So bourbon not good.

[@thelurker9472]

I'd also suggest not to eat sour kraut before class either. Last roll once I had to beg off for fear my dinner would say hi to people.
