The best way to understand what an esports athlete needs to perform at their maximum is by treating them like traditional athletes. Our guest, Josh Otero, believes they must pay attention to their resting time, eating habits, hydration, and avoid grinding all day.

Keeping up with our series of interviews at the Esports Next Conference, we chat with Josh Otero, Co-Founder and CEO of NutriGMR and Founder and Chairman of Warrior GMR Foundation.
