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.

MMA Training - Workout

I just got back from an intense thirty minute session and my arms are weak, so if there is a spelling error you will know why.

This simple session will hit all of your upper body majors and put you into a deficit where it will be up to you to put your mind into over drive.

Here it is:10 minutes pullups - As Many Reps As possible
10 minutes pushups- As Many Reps as possible
10 minutes situps - As Many Reps as Possible

Rest as needed...but keep driving.

When you are in the midst of some pain take a second to review 3 different combinations in your head. Clear your mind so that you see them landing and damaging your opponent.

Have a great day.
