Jon Jones Got It Wrong...

A Strength Training Program To Dominate The Cage

Powerlifting & Bodybuilding Routines Don't Work For MMA

Why?...

  • Too much volume.
  • Focused solely on maximal strength or hypertrophy.
  • Limited transfer to MMA movements.

Training purely for maximal strength has its drawbacks...

Mainly due to its opposing adaptations to speed.

Two potentially negative adaptations developed from chronic maximal strength training are...

  • Increases in prime mover activation (e.g. pecs in the bench press)
  • Increases in co-contractions (opposing muscle groups activating together during movement causing slower movement; e.g. biceps and triceps).

The inherent problem with both of these adaptations is they reduce the speed of movement! 

This is often why coaches and fighters will say weight training makes them slow...

And in the case of Jon Jones...

Spending so much time getting stronger at the expense of other training caused Greg Jackson to say "Powerlifting’s a problem, he gasses.”

The Solution? An MMA Specific Strength Program That Isn't Solely Based On The Powerlifts

Squat, Bench, and Deadlift aren't the only way to get strong. Here's what this program will do for you! 

  • Build robustness to common MMA injuries (keeping you training and competing for longer).
  • Exercise variations to improve the strength & power of MMA specific movements (not strength that doesn't transfer).
  • Speed & power being the number one priority (strength training to make you fast).
