This is How You Get Ready

One of the questions I seem to get a lot is what sort of workout do you need to do to be in shape for MMA?

Many guys seem to think that ‘cardio’ is the big thing, and that they should spend all their time running. (Most of the time, this is b/c they’ve watched too many fights on TV, and some announcer…who usually knows jack about what he’s talking about…keeps talking about some fighter’s “cardio”.)

While cardio is important, it’s just a small piece of the puzzle. A good MMA workout needs to:

-get you stronger and more powerful

-not add muscle mass (remember, MMA is about weight classes – getting stronger is no good if you gotta fight bigger guys now)

-improve your wind (hence all the ‘cardio’ talk)

-increase your power-conditioning (in other words, make you just as powerful at the end of the fight when you’re fatigued as you are at the beginning of your fight)

-give you more work capacity overall – you *never* wanna lose a fight b/c you “gas”

And then there are two of the most important factors not yet mentioned…and both have to do with time. A fight camp doesn’t last forever, so you have to be able to do many of these things pretty quickly (in a matter of just a few weeks).

Also, your workout needs to not take a whole ton of time, as you’re gonna be busy with all your fight training, drilling, and sparring to spend a ton of time on your strength and conditioning.

(And if you think about it, a workout that does all this kinda thing is perfect for the ‘regular guy’, too…even if you don’t train in MMA.)

So how do you accomplish all this? With a dedicated program like the ‘Championship Edition 2.0′ MMA workout.

(You know…the workout that was originally designed for a former UFC champ?)
