How do I cut weight for BJJ competition?

Weight cutting is common but risky. Beginners should compete at natural weight. If you cut, do it gradually over weeks through diet, not dehydration. Extreme water cuts impair performance and are dangerous. Weigh yourself regularly to know your walking weight. Consult experienced competitors or coaches before cutting.
