Andre Metzger on Making Weight with KAATSU
World championship bronze medalist and two-time NCAA wrestling champion Andre Metzger describes how KAATSU helps his collegiate wrestlers make weight before their bouts.
Metzger uses a KAATSU Nano and KAATSU Air Bands on his wrestlers' arms and legs (separately) with the appropriate Base SKU (compression) and Optimal SKU (compression).
For individuals who use the KAATSU Master 2.0 or KAATSU Cycle 2.0 and want to maintain or loss weight should limit their food intake at least 90 minutes after doing KAATSU. Because the vascular tissue is made more elastic with efficient and effective KAATSU Cycles, there is a period of time where more energy is required for the vascular tissue to expand in this state. As your body is burning more energy, it is great to stay hydrated, but less optional to consume food if weight control or weight reduction is the goal.
