Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) - How Do I Get in Fighting Shape?

Can you imagine being in the ring, facing your biggest opponent, lights, cameras, the roar of a very excited crowd? This has been a dream of mine since I was a kid. In the last few years I've really started following the MMA, and Ultimate Fighter Challenge, (UFC) I love the intensity of competing one on one. Being involved in various forms of martial arts has given me the training I need, but an injury to my spine a few years ago has kept me from competing at that level again.
As you read this article you'll have an excellent routine for fight training. You'll be in the best shape of your life. I'm giving you a secret for success so keep reading. The routine for a fighter is a combination of stamina, and power.
How do you get this balance? Great question; balance comes from having a great routine, the central part of your routine needs to be a combination of cardiovascular training and weights.




Fighter Training Tips:
1. Critical; weight lifting needs to be a combination of, body weight and free weights. The combination of the two together gives you an excellent power balance. Your strength and the level of your conditioning are vital to your success. As you know your fight depends heavily on both.
2. The amount of training is essential, training must be just enough without being considered over training. Once you pass the point of effectiveness you are priming yourself for an injury. For example if you train 5 days a week, you shouldn't be lifting each of these days, alternate. You have to give your muscles rest or they won't develop correctly. Other muscles will be called upon to make up for the under developed one. The imbalance causes muscle strain, and injury.
Fantastic Routine:
Stretch- each day a bit before your workout, but it's even more important after, the total should be 5-7 minutes before and 15-20 minutes after.
Interval training is a one to one ratio. One minute work hard one minute rest.
• Monday: Interval training for 30 minutes; for weights chest and back.
• Tuesday, Run for 3 miles, or cycle for 8. Weights: Shoulders
• Wednesday Interval training; for weights, legs
• Thursday, Cardiovascular Run or cycle, rest
• Friday Rest
• Saturday; Cardiovascular increase distance, running move up to 5 miles or biking, 12. Finish with a calisthenics routine, building stamina.
• Sunday: Rest
Pay close attention: Now that you have a great routine, all you need is one final secret ingredient.






Fact: You have to train your mind. This is where the fight is won or lost. I'm sure you've heard this, but it can't be emphasized enough.
When you are watching a fight where the opponents are equally matched but then one seems to dominate the fight, this is more than likely because they are in the opponents head. You must get them to think what you want them to think, and then you'll have the power to win.
"Although most fighters believe that the fight is 90 percent mental and ten percent physical, they train 90 percent physical and ten percent mental. That is going to have to change as MMA continues to evolve or those fighters will be left behind." - Randy Couture, Former Ultimate Fighter Challenge Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight Champion.
Do you have what it takes to train your mind, and body at this level?
Can you visualize yourself in the ring with opponents like Chuck Liddell, Tito Ortiz, Anderson "the Spider" Silva? Then you have to have the mindset they have.
