Fitness: How to train for a MMA body
Mixed Martial Arts is probably one of the most physically demanding sports and requires incredible overall fitness. Mixed martial arts fighters, or mma fighters, usually have a very ideal body shape. They are often well balanced, functionally strong, and aesthetically pleasing. They are not excessively bulky and impractical but are rather lean and athletic. A person striving for any level of fitness would not do wrong to attempt to achieve the body, inwardly and outwardly, of an mma fighter. Or course, the simplest way to do this is to adopt many of the same training principles that mma fighters employ. As we will see mma fighters usually have a very well rounded fitness plan that will be covered in this blog over a series of posts. Here is a general outline:- Weight Training: For strength and muscle gain
- Cardiovascular Training: For endurance, speed, and fat loss.
- Circuit Training: For a combination of endurance and strength gains as well as speed gains and fat loss. Can be done with body weight.
- MMA specific Training: For fitness specific to fighting
- Nutrition routine: For overall health and recovery
