About the Author
My name is Jesse Conaway, and I'm a former DII college wrestler and MMA fighter out of St. Charles, Missouri. I train at St. Charles MMA, and I'm currently a BJJ blue belt.
I have a personal trainer certification and sports nutrition specialization through the National Academy of Sports Medicine, as well as a Crossfit Level 1 certificate and a whole lot of experience cutting weight. As much as possible, I've tried to give information on this website that is backed by reputable, peer-reviewed science, and I've provided links to my references under the "references" tab.
I don't know everything about nutrition and weight loss; my understanding of these topics is always evolving. I do, however, have a good body of experience both in my own weight cuts, as well as managing the weight cuts of other fighters. If you think I've overlooked something, stated something incorrectly, or if there's something you think I've failed to explain sufficiently, please let me know!
Thank you so much for your interest in this site, and your interest in my work. I'd love to hear from you!
