  • Example of a REAL Program

    I don’t just write programs, just like you, I’ve bought a ton of workout programs over the years.

    Some programs have been quite good, and some aren’t worth the digital ink they’re printed with. I’ve been really upset after some purchases, especially when I couldn’t get in touch with the author to get my problems addressed.

    That’s why I want to show you an example of what a QUALITY workout program is like, so that you know what you’re looking for. Yes, it’s my program, and I am biased, because I fully stand behind what I put out.

    advanced-mma-power-system

    I know that my reputation is the most important thing, which is why I put a lot of time and effort into making sure my programs accomplish what I promise and are EASY TO FOLLOW.

    I’ve been told that I’m very picky… I just like to think of it as attention to detail.

    I also make sure I’m available to help you out if you come across any problems, and if I can’t help you, I’ll give you your money back. No hassles.

    So check out this 1 workout from my Advanced MMA Power Training System – it’s from the first phase which is the Maximal Explosive Strength phase, where you take your maximal strength and make it EXPLOSIVE.

    I’m also giving you the Table of Contents so you can see exactly what’s in the manual. And this is just the table of contents for the Training Guide, not the Master Manual, which has a ton more info that will have you saying to yourself, "Yes, this is exactly what I need!"

    Download it here (right click and choose ‘Save As’):

    => Excerpt from the Advanced MMA Power Training Guide

    Notice how each and every workout is laid out in detail. It’s not just, "OK here’s the program, just go and do it."

    With this program, it’s like, "OK, today, you’re going to do 3 sets of this, rest 60 seconds, then move on to 5 sets of the next exercise, rest for 2 minutes…"

    No detail is left behind.

    And I don’t want you to be left behind, so make sure you go grab the program before it’s GONE:

    If you’re not sure if it’s right for you, just get it, read through it, and if it’s not right for you, email me and I’ll give you your money back, period.

  • Steve Lopez’s Shoulder Injury (and how to prevent it)

    UFC 103 was another great event, the level of fighters is just improving so much that most cards have great fights. Vitor proved that he was back with another quick win, and Crocop proved that he’s become pretty much irrelevant to the heavyweight division with his loss to a very scary Junior Dos Santos.

    But the highlight for me, being a fitness guy, was watching Steve Lopez’s arm come right out of the shoulder socket.

    So why exactly did his arm come out of the socket – and how can you prevent it?

  • Listen to Your Body, But Don’t Make Excuses!

    Every Late August and into September, I ditch all core training.

    It’s not because I’ve trained the core super hard in June and July to look good on the beach and now need a break.

    It’s because of this:

    ragweed

    No, this isn’t a marijuana plant that I harvest and get baked on and do nothing, that’s not why I stop training the core.

    It’s because I’m really allergic to ragweed and I can’t stop sneezing. I always sneeze at least 3 times, sometimes up to 5 times, and if my allergies get really bad, I’ll repeat this vicious cycle of maximal abdominal contractions every couple of minutes.

    This last Friday was particularly terrible, so bad that I felt mentally foggy, my body was tired, and I was all stuffy and puffy-eyed. And I missed my scheduled workout.

    But here’s what I did instead, and what you can do the next time you feel like crap but you’ve got a training session scheduled:

  • 1-arm Pushups: Great Exercise for MMA Fighters

    The 1-arm Pushup is a great exercise for fighters because it integrates the whole body and works muscles in specific patterns applicable to mixed-martial arts.baby_1_arm_pushup

    Now this exercise doesn’t replace things like bench presses and dumbbell presses, but it’s a great supplement to a training routine.

    Being able to perform 1-arm Pushups in good form gives you 3 things that Bench presses don’t:

    1) Rotational / multi-planar core stability
    2) Shoulder stability / proper scapular movement
    3) Neuromuscular integration

    The specific pattern of activation of the muscles in the 1-arm Pushup is very beneficial for being able to use your core when you’re throwing punches so you can deliver more explosive and powerful strikes.

    Watch this video to learn how to do 1-arm pushups properly, and how to build up your ability to do them if you can’t do them now:

  • MMA Fitness Assessments Part 2

    Had a lot of people put their results into the first fitness assessment, which measured upper body push strength and endurance, great job!

    jordan-dunkSo now, here’s Part 2 of the assessments for you to try out.

    We’ll be taking a look at your lower body strength, power, and power endurance with these 3 tests.

    One of them will even tell us if you’re ready for the NBA or not.

    I’m sure you can guess what it is.

    Anyway – here are the 3 tests – let’s see what you got:

  • Strength and Conditioning Assessments

    All throughout our childhoods, we’ve been administered tests to measure such things as our math skills (I killed these – thank you Chinese genetics!), reading ability, knowledge of history, geography, and more.

    CB029645Pretty much every topic that we learned about, we were tested on.

    Although some may argue that these tests don’t say much about our intelligence, they are definitely better than nothing.

    After all, how do we know we’ve improved, if we don’t have a base level to compare against?

    In terms of strength and conditioning for mixed-martial arts, it seems that testing yourself is not very common.

    Instead, most guys are content to simply push themselves as hard as they can every workout and trust in blind faith that they’re improving their fitness for MMA.

    Unfortunately, this couldn’t be further from the truth.

    If you take MMA seriously, then you must keep an eye on your progress, to make sure your workouts are in fact working and that you’re getting stronger, more powerful, and improving your endurance.

  • Lazy post…

    Yesterday I was filming for my new Advanced MMA Power program, and it ended up to be 5 HOURS STRAIGHT of filming strength and conditioning methods.

    dvd-3d-cover-300px-wideI ended up hiring a guy who makes movies and has his own production company, so he was a bit of a perfectionist.

    Needless to say, I’m still beat.

    And that’s why I’m making a lazy post today.

    So if you want to see some great pictures of rather nice-looking MMA girls, click the link below:
