https://sweetscienceoffighting.com/taniwha-shorts In this episode, Andy Marley discusses the effects of alcohol on exercise performance and recovery. He explains that while alcohol can provide calories, it doesn't change how much fat or carbohydrate the body utilizes during submaximal exercise.
However, intense exercise performance can be negatively impacted by alcohol consumption. Andy also shares his training philosophy for strength and conditioning in grappling sports, emphasizing the importance of absolute strength and power.
He suggests that longer intervals are beneficial for grappling, but sprints can also be incorporated depending on the athlete's needs and training volume.
