No volume or engagement in the game

I've been training for two years in a small group, but that first five months i was training only two times a week, now i train 5 times a week

When i started, i was coming from a place of years of complete sedentarism, and a life of mostly inactivity. Aways an obese child who did not want to play active games, and becoming a very tired adult, capoeira kind of saved me.

But the thing is, i have come a long way and got to a point of mild endurance, where there was none(vertigo in like, 5 martelos), still having to manually shut down all the lazy alarms my body sets for me to just stop.

When the training is over, and is time for the roda, i simply don't have the energy to do anything proprely, is two years of poor practice in the roda because i come there completely and utterly destroied, and then i don't get to develop my game and my volume.

As for rodas outide the academy, we barely even go because i am still a first cord and all the graduados work full time jobs and don't want us to go alone, they have to be free in order for us to go, and i am the only 21 year old, all the others are 50yo up, or children, so no training partners my age to just play outside of training hours

How can i train outside of the academy to fix this because i kind of feel like a false capoeirista, training the best and playing the worst.

Difficulty having a diet while sports

21 female 5'2 tall

I have a very active routine, i exercise every single day.

I do capoeira 5 days a week, and training outside of the academy the other 2 days. I also do calisthenics to help streghten the base for the capoeira, and i use the bicycle as primary means of transport, around 28 miles a week.

I have lost a lot of weight very quickly when starting this life, i've lost 12kg (around 26 pounds) without changing anything, but now i reached a plateau, and with capoeira being a high impact exercise, i want to protect my poor joints from jumping extra weight on them all the time. I am still overweight, 73kg(160 pounds), BMI 29.

But the problem is, everytime a do a deficit, usually 500 calories, i feel like i have absolutely no fuel when is time to do my sport, i drop a bit of weight and gain it back because i have to keep up my performance e end up eating

Any tips on how to keep my energy and have a healthy weight loss? And possibly not loose the muscles i gained from my sports

Edit: The amount i cycle was written in kilometers not miles, now corrected
