Vadim Nemkov reveals 2022 kidney issues caused stamina problems vs Anderson

Vadim Nemkov disclosed that kidney problems in 2022 severely impacted his cardio in the first Corey Anderson fight and training camps. He would gas out after one round in sparring despite feeling fine in other workouts. After medical consultations, doctors identified kidney issues related to severe weight cuts as the root cause. Nemkov found an appropriate medication in Thailand and has eliminated all sports supplements from his regimen, now only taking vitamins like omega-3, fish oil, magnesium, and vitamin B. He reports feeling no worse without creatine, protein, and BCAAs, emphasizing proper nutrition and sleep instead.
