The Nutrion approach

Make weight without sacrificing your performance.

Nutrion starts with a realistic competition target, then builds your meals, quantities and weight trajectory around your training, preferences and schedule. Progress is reviewed early enough to adjust without relying on an extreme final cut.

01

Built around you

Your meals and timing reflect your training, competition schedule and food preferences. The quantities and grocery list are worked out for you.

02

No calorie or macro counting

You get clear meals with ingredient quantities matched to your needs. Follow the plan without calculating targets or building meals from macros yourself.

03

Adjust early. Avoid extreme cuts.

Your progress is monitored throughout camp, so changes happen while there is still time to protect your training and competition performance.

One-to-one nutrition coaching

A clear plan every day. Daniel in your corner throughout.

Your nutrition is personalized around your training, preferences and competition target. Daniel reviews your progress, answers your questions in private video calls and on WhatsApp, and adjusts the plan as your camp develops.

My weight jumped 0.8 kg after eating out last night. Should I cut carbs today?

No. That is most likely water, not fat. Keep today’s meals as planned, hit your hydration target and send me tomorrow morning’s weight. I’ll adjust only if the trend changes.

Meet Daniel

Your plan is built by a registered dietitian and BJJ black belt.

As a full-time competitor, Daniel had mixed experiences with nutritionists. They understood nutrition, but did not always understand the demands of BJJ, competition preparation and making weight. He decided to study nutrition so BJJ athletes could have both professional expertise and someone who genuinely understood their sport.

Daniel started by supporting BJJ athletes in person in Brazil. He later moved his coaching fully online and now works with athletes across Europe and North America from Nutrion’s base in Switzerland.

Before you apply

What athletes usually want to know.

Is Nutrion personal coaching or an app?

It is personal coaching with Daniel, delivered through private video calls, direct WhatsApp support and a plan that Daniel reviews and adjusts. The Nutrion app keeps your meals, hydration, check-ins and weight trajectory clear between conversations. Nutrion Pro will be a separate self-serve product.

Do I need to be preparing for a competition?

No. Nutrion can support training, recovery, eating habits and body-composition goals as well as competition preparation.

What if my competition target is not realistic?

Daniel will recommend a target he believes is realistic for your preparation window, weigh-in format and performance. Coaching toward a competition target only proceeds once an appropriate goal has been agreed.

Do I have to count calories or macros?

No. Daniel works out the nutritional strategy and translates it into meals and ingredient quantities. You follow the plan without calculating calorie or macro targets yourself.

How quickly can I start?

Daniel reviews every application and replies within 48 hours, often sooner. Once you are accepted and sign up, your starter plan, hydration guidance and weight trajectory are available in the app within minutes of completing onboarding. Daniel then personally reviews, approves or replaces the plan within seven days.

Can first-time competitors apply?

Yes. Nutrion works with athletes from their first competition through world-class black-belt events.
