Short Workouts Tip #4

By admin | Published: March 15, 2010

Stop resting and learn to mix sets/exercises. If you watch most lifters workout you’ll notice that most of the actual workout is rest periods. That’s what ends up making a workout long or take up a lot of time unless it is specifically intended to be very long. (i.e. 100 miles on [...]

Not Resolutions… But Resoluteness Part 3

By admin | Published: January 29, 2010

Well maybe one more shot on this topic… The state of resoluteness I believe requires organizing your mind and then your life. It isn’t the frantic drop everything and do “this” notion. That won’t last. It’s the careful consideration of the things that are really important to you and the idea that no [...]

Quick Workouts

By admin | Published: January 4, 2010

Every training session you do doesn’t have to be long or super hard or complicated. The body responds wonderfully to most stimulation you give it. Not every day will you time or inclination to go long or crazy. A couple weeks ago I had a few things to do and I wanted to watch the [...]

Sandbag Conditioning for MMA

By admin | Published: December 3, 2009

Here’s a little clip of a sandbag conditioning routine that we use with some of our fighters. The main focus is the use of the sandbag, but with some pretty unique exercises.

Last Weeks Workouts

By admin | Published: November 23, 2009

I thought I’d give you some samples of what I did in last week’s training. It’s a little unusual, but partly that’s the point. Right now I’m working out three to four times per week, but occasionally I adjust that to train for larger abilities. Let me explain: In this particular series I [...]
