UK Fitness Personal Training

Just completed my first ever half marathon. Ran the Aberdeen Half Marathon in aid of Dementia
UK. Official time of 01:34:52 in position 341.

Would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has sponsored me for the event, it is very much appreciated.

Dementia UK

This July, I'm participating in the Aberdeen Half Marathon and raising funds to help ensure no family faces dementia alone. I'm taking on the challenge for Dementia UK the specialist dementia nursing charity, and would be grateful for your support.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £33 could fund a new dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour helping a family in the community, offering practical solutions and emotional support to cope with their loved one’s distressed behaviour.

Following an extensive literature review, the International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) has developed an official position on nutritional and weight cut strategies for combat sports. The type of combat sport, length of the fight camp, and time between weigh-in and competition are factors influencing nutritional and weight cut strategies.

The above slides contain a summary of some key aspects of weight cut from the literature review.

Phases of combat sports are generally separated into three distinct phases: “Off camp” or general preparation, “fight camp” and “fight week”/post weigh-in.

In the above, there is a general breakdown of some of the key elements from each phase.
