That is bad for your back, even with low weight. You need to incorporate a squat motion into that. I noticed that Randy was doing his deadlifts straight legged.

It improves better force, explosive one,sure Coture knows what he´s doing but certainly he has at least routines of muscle resistance (15 to 20x routine) repeated at least 4 times or more.Muscle resistance is a must on MMA,cardio stuff also with explosive routines. Cycling can be a good alternative. All the best from PT, Abnormal Obviously the kind of this trainning (8x routine)should be repeated at least 3 times.

I hope that your first fight went well. I have been training in mixed martial arts for roughly 13 years and have done well in the fights that I have been involved in. In those years I have fought many demons including sports induced asthma and I can tell you that the workouts these guys are posting are fantastic. You have to involve strength training, endurance training and explosive training in a lot of your workouts. Check out this video on youtube which works in with what these guys are saying. http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=kanxwlGyZis Hey, the saint.

We have labeled it "the Randy Workout." We have added figure 8's with a med ball and no rest in between sets. It's aweful and awesome all at once. We use this workout and it’s awesome.

I'm not a MMA fighter, but I did fight NCAA Judo for a few years. I started doing circuit training about a decade ago and still haven't found a better workout. Avoid lifting too heavy of weights. You shouldn't be adding mass, just strength and endurance. Lotsa muscle requires more oxygen to function...watch guys like Sokoudju, he's got some serious strength, but he's fighting to breathe after 1 round. I like to add a min or two of medium intensity jogging at the end of each set, as well. And a punching bag and jump rope are also two of the best endurance exercises out there. Don't worry too much about your weight, but be smart about your diet. For me, the best tool to losing weight was drinking less beer. It's amazing how much that'll add to ya. Also, slow down on your sugar and processed food intake. For the guys just looking to start out:
