When I first started preparing for the ADCC Trials in 2023, I was about 165lbs. If you’re not aware of the weight classes, there are only 5, and there is about 25lbs between each division! That left me undersized for the 77kg division, where many would walk around at about 190lbs and cut down to that weight. The next lower division was 66kg… just 145lbs!
I had competed in MMA at that weight, but it had been 15 years since I was at that size. Losing 20lbs seemed just about impossible, especially at 39 years old!
But this wasn’t just about cutting weight—it was about doing it in a way that would allow me to maintain my strength and mental sharpness too. When I dieted before it was hard to get anything done at work during the day, or even to have a normal conversation. So I had to find a way to shed the weight while also maintaining my regular life and training.
That’s when I started developing what I now call Combat Cut. I cleaned up my diet some… notably removing chips and not eating breakfast. But even just that would have been very hard for me without supplements.
I started researching and testing all the popular AND unpopular supplements that might be able to help me in this impossible goal.
Over the next few months, I was able to find a handful of ingredients that helped me feel energized during the day, consume less calories, and burn more calories without feeling like I was starving and dying.
I shared my formula with a few training partners to see what they thought, and soon I heard back from each of them about their own progress. Next, I took it to those who had tried MatFuel, and heard even more great reviews and stories of weight loss goals and progress, even from those who had struggled for years.
Obviously there are many supplements out there that claim to make fat melt off your body while actually doing nothing. That’s why I am offering Combat Cut to you with NO RISK! If you don’t love it, just let me know and I’ll send your money back, no questions asked. Try Combat Cut for yourself and see how it works for you.
It’s best to take Combat Cut as early in the day as possible, since it has a very stimulating effect and will make it difficult to sleep if you take it too late.
Unlike MatFuel, this supplement can actually have a negative effect on your cardio performance for a few hours after you take it as well. That’s because of the thermogenic effects that raise your body temperature and heart rate, so it’s recommended NOT to take it before working out. So if you train or work out at night, take it in the morning. If you train in the morning, take it after so that it doesn’t affect your training.
Generally, the answer is no. Cutting weight for BJJ competitions can be counterproductive and detrimental to performance, unless you are very close to a lower weight class and can weigh in the day before, or if there are significant gaps between weight classes and such events are infrequent, like ADCC competitions.
For most competitors, it’s better to focus on maintaining a healthy weight and optimizing performance within their natural weight class. Cutting weight often involves drastic measures that can negatively impact physical health, energy levels, and overall performance.
Combat Cut can be beneficial for those who need to lose weight for health reasons or who need to make weight for specific competitions, but it should be approached with caution. Sustainable, gradual weight management is typically more effective and safer than extreme weight cutting methods. Balancing health, performance, and competition goals is crucial for long-term success and well-being in BJJ.
People have different preferences for food with this supplement. If it upsets your stomach at all, then you’ll need to eat at some food with it or at least drink a lot of water. If not, feel free to take it without food.
Yes, Combat Cut is made with vegan capsules!
The capsules can be dumped out and put into a drink of your choice if you do not want to swallow them as normal. It will still work just as well.
If you take the recomended 3 capsules per day, one bottle will last 30 days. Many people just take 2 or even 1 per day however, which would last 60 and 90 days respectively.

L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid derivative that plays a crucial role in the metabolism of fats. It helps transport fatty acids into the mitochondria, the energy powerhouses of cells, where they are burned for fuel. For BJJ athletes and combat sports practitioners, L-Carnitine aids in enhancing fat oxidation, which can help improve body composition and support weight loss efforts. By increasing the efficiency of fat utilization, it helps maintain muscle mass while promoting a leaner physique, making it an essential ingredient for those aiming to cut weight without sacrificing performance.
CLA is a type of fatty acid found in meat and dairy products that has been shown to support fat loss while preserving lean muscle mass. It works by influencing enzymes and receptors involved in fat metabolism, which can help reduce body fat and improve overall body composition. For athletes, including those in BJJ, Wrestling and MMA, CLA provides an additional edge by helping to manage body fat levels during intense training and cutting phases. Its muscle-preserving properties ensure that weight loss efforts do not compromise strength and performance.
HMB is a metabolite of the amino acid leucine, known for its role in muscle protein synthesis and prevention of muscle breakdown. It helps to protect against muscle loss, especially during periods of calorie restriction or intense training, making it particularly useful for athletes undergoing weight cuts. By supporting muscle preservation and reducing muscle soreness, HMB aids in maintaining strength and performance even while pursuing fat loss goals, ensuring that athletes stay in peak condition throughout their cutting phase.
Garcinia Cambogia is a tropical fruit extract known for its potential to support weight loss and appetite control. Its active component, hydroxycitric acid (HCA), is believed to help inhibit the enzyme that converts carbohydrates into fat, thereby reducing fat storage and promoting fat burning. For those in combat sports, including BJJ and MMA, Garcinia Cambogia can be a helpful aid in managing calorie intake and supporting fat loss efforts. Additionally, it may contribute to better energy levels during training sessions.
Yohimbe Extract is derived from the bark of the Yohimbe tree and is known for its potential to enhance fat metabolism and improve exercise performance. It works by increasing blood flow and stimulating the release of adrenaline, which can aid in fat loss and enhance physical endurance. For athletes, Yohimbe Extract can provide a boost in energy and help target stubborn fat areas, making it a valuable component of a weight management regimen.
Caffeine Anhydrous is a dehydrated form of caffeine that delivers a potent energy boost and enhances mental alertness. With its quick absorption and concentrated form, it can help increase metabolism and promote fat oxidation, making it an effective ingredient for weight loss and improved athletic performance. For combat sports athletes, including those in BJJ and MMA, caffeine anhydrous provides the necessary energy and focus to power through intense training sessions and support overall fat loss efforts. Its effects on energy levels and cognitive function can contribute to better performance and more effective workouts.

I have been using this for about month now and I have since lost a couple of pounds.
Mat Supplements Combat Cut is a powerhouse formula designed for combat sports enthusiasts looking to cut weight while preserving lean muscle mass. This thermogenic supplement not only helps in shedding excess pounds but also suppresses appetite, providing effective support during weight loss journeys. With 90 capsules per bottle, offering 30 servings, it ensures long-lasting support, making it an essential addition to any athlete’s training regimen. Experience boosted energy levels, reduced cravings, and improved focus, making your weight-cutting process more manageable and efficient.
I took it one time. I am just too sensitive to the yohimbe in it. I gave the rest of the bottle to a roommate who can better handle stimulants. The stuff work great and is very stimulating.
This weight loss supplement seems to work well and the pills are easy to take. The serving size is 3 pills but I recommend taking the suggested serving size. I recommend this product for the price.
I had been using protein powder with a thermogenic and switched to one without it so I could give these tablets a try. After using the bottle as directed I can say that they seem to work as well as the protein powder I had been using. If you want to give a thermogenic a try, this is a solid option.
