MMA Training - Conditioning

Here's a session for you to try today if you woke up today and felt the need to train, like RAMPAGE should after getting whupped by Forrest....whoa!

30 minutes of
5 tire flips
10 squats 10 pushups
Rest 15 seconds and repeat for 30 min

I am always a little surprised when only 4 lines of text can bring so much pain.

Here's the important part about this training. Ask yourself...have I fuelled my body properly to sustain 30 minutes of work.

Have you begun your day by hydrating yourself? Two glasses of cold water right out of the gate are essential to begin your day. Why? Aside from getting everything inside you moving it also acts as a cleansing agent and flushes the body of toxins.

Now whether you are a fighter cutting weight, or you are simply getting in the best shape of your life, a good breakfast is 5 egg whites and 2 pieces of gluten free rice bread. This will give you all the energy you need to sustain your energy level for the entire session.

These are really good strategies and they are all contained in and a part of the MMA Fitness Training Regime for people who want to get into killer shape or a fighter ready to get into the octagon.

Enjoy that training session

MMA Training - Power Lifts

A solid MMA Training Program certainly has some power lifts at its core. Is Your Trainer having you focus on the tempo of your lift....and why would he...and what do you care...you just want to be ready to kick the livin' snot out of your opponent...

Being able to do that depends on being properly conditioned. You must also put on some mass while losing fat during your training....

So when you are doing some lifts have you trainer establish a tempo like a 311 or 412...here's the technical b.s. if you need to know what and why

For a 311 Temp

3 seconds to lower the weight (eccentric portion), 1 second pause at the isometric position and 1 second to lift the weight (concentric)

412 is just 4 second lower, 1 sec pause, 2 secs up.


With respect to mass programs it really ensures effective time under tension, which lead to the consequent metabolic environments necessary for muscle growth............

If you don't give a fat rats butt about the technical stuff I don't blame you...that's your trainer's job to know it and make sure you are ready for the octagon...if your trainer isn't having you focus on tempo...are they really preparing you as good as they can?

Make sure you are prepared for your fights.
