In a youtube video of a presentation Charles did in Italy, he recommended green drinks from powder to help with cramps.
I get the occasional leg cramp, and keep a pack of SaltStick lozenges in my gym bag. They help.

Ryan, Joseph,
Have you tried Charles' Yin Reserve?
I stopped having interrupted sleep after I left a very stressful job (!)
So I don't have real sleeping issues, but Yin Reserve works for me. In fact, I sleep less, sometimes 6.5 hrs, but I sleep very soundly and don't feel tired in the AM.
I have tried other sleep supplements (from Nuun and Momentous) but they don't work as well.
Note: I am guilty of staring at LED screens in the PM 😉

I am so glad the topic of cutting / making weight is being addressed!

Do you recommend:

A) cutting weight slowly to hit fighting (contract) weight BEFORE the weigh-in for a pro fight (weigh-ins the day before the fight)
OR

B) keeping a few pounds on above the fighting weight until just before the weigh in, and SWEAT OFF the final pounds (plastics, sauna, hot bath, etc)

What is your opinion of using a water-loading method (2 gal, 1 gal, 1 gal, 0.5 gal, 0.25 gal) to make weight?

Thanks for your help!
