My bro met this og gangster in a tournament who used to be a pro in mexico. This guy told my brother to eat a honeycomb full of honey and drink alot of honey right before a fight like two hours before. my brother tried it and he said he felt stong and with alot of energy duiring the fight. Weve been doing it ever since. has anyone ever heard of this? what do you guys eat before a fight?

never heard of it.. might try it

it's probably just the sugar overdose, but honey i think realizes the energy slower.. so u'll have more energy for a longer period. followed by a big down.. if u keep using the energy (like a boxing match) it's great.. if u don't, u'll just get fat.. makes sense i guess, right?

i could be wrong of course.. i'll look up some more on honey.

How much is a honeycomb full?

It's likely just a massive sugar rush.

My Dad told me to do this when I was a little kid having my first boxing match, to this day I still do it.

I'm not sure about the honeycomb thing, but my trainer has some thing he told me to do.

I was exhausted one day last summer after a workout and sparring session and had to go work right after. My trainer told me to go home and get an empty water bottle, put honey at the bottom of it and fill it with orange juice, then shake it up/mix it. Like a honey/orange version of chocolate milk lol. He said it would give me energy.

I'm not gonna lie, I felt like it gave me energy. I drank it every day for like 2 weeks lol but I haven't made it in a while.

Nice quick route to diabetes haha.

we usualy buy a small jar of honey with a piece of honeycomb in it. I would say i take about 2-3 good chugs of the bottle and eat half the honey comb.

Like many people have said, it is likely just a large intake of sugar in a small period of time, which explains the onrush of energy.

I don't really want to try it because I don't want my ******* sticking together for weeks. :dead1:

Whoah 2-3 chugs is quite abit of honey. I usually use two tablespoons, two chugs of honey is alot of sugar.

Ok so today I was feeling pretty crappy all day, weak and slow etc because I have a tournament coming up that I need to lsoe weight for so I've been dieting and doing a tonne of running. I remembered this thread and so just before I left for the gym I took ate a big scoop of honey.

I felt great and was able to push myself hard through the workout. I was expecting to be dragging myself around the gym and was planning on making it a real short night, but I had all my strength and my coach was loving me tonight.

honeycomb dipped in honey tastes like a pancake. Take that for breakfast (I prefer two buttermilk pancakes instead of honeycomb) with a banana and coffee. You'll be ready to kill someone, make sure there's a clean bathroom nearby.

There might be something too it. theres alot of good things in honey along with sugar. i personally put it on cuts instead of neosporin and it works just as well.
