Your videos are so helpful. I hope to start training for a boxing match to raise money for Cancer research soon, covid permitting. I look forward to documenting this on KZbin

[@dadventuretv2538]

Thanks man. Incorporating in today’s workout. Already do the alternating hand swing but without the lateral part so that looks like a great addition. Primarily working out for Mountain Biking now at age 50 these look perfect.

[@mrmunson5423]

You sir, are a better trainer. I like the idea of the mentorship you mentioned. I am a trainer in a gym, full of everyday people, I love my job, lack confidence despite being in the industry for many years, but I am passionate and committed to helping people, I know what I’m doing, but when I see quality like this, I realise that I should be more creative and brave with exercise selection. I love yoga too - great, great video man 💪

[@Mason_Ramos]

Love the content man, I've adopted a lot of your methods into my routine. Not a fighter but I love to train like one. Would you recommend for regular people who don't plan on competing but who still love to train like a high level athlete to periodically put themselves through a "camp/season" for themselves? Or is there a method you would recommend for steady gains without peaking? Keep up the good work brother!

[@PhilDaruStrong]

I do like to follow more of a concurrent/conjugated style for those not looking to peak and maintain throughout the year I have a program app that goes through this it’s called fight dominance it’s on my website

1. LOWER BODY HIP KETTLEBELLS ROTATIONAL POWER & ENDURANCE (Weight BB/DB/Cable) Phil Daru kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpisn4mje7Gpia8 -Kettlebell hip shift 60 secs or more or 5-10 reps each side (for aducters & glumede) (begin by hip shifting to one side to start with that knee slight bent and the other leg more straight, hold the kettlebell in the opposite arm by centerline near the thigh, next shift to the opposite hip, dropping and catching the weight switching hands) -Hipshift kettlebell swings 5-10 reps (switching from flexion going down, into extension going upward, do more quality reps) (when coming up with the kettlebell the knee of the same side leg should be more bent with the other leg more straight) (for kettlebell swings, ensure increase the range on the way down swinging the kettlebell far behind you for more power) (when coming up on a kettlebell swing, make sure to be explosive in the hips and not swinging the ball too high) -Coil to Press (functional punches) (for legs, hips & the transverse plane (trunk, obliques, transverse abdominal & rotational power) (get into a deep lunge position, coil laterally flexing the weight down on the forearm to open up with full flexion, the torso should be bent to the side of the weight, then as you go to step, follow up by rotating straight punching to the ceiling with the forearm & shoulder. Coil on the knee side, with internal rotation on the stance leg, while the swing leg comes out in front as u press the weight punching up, so as u press into expansion, have the other side go into coil which gives compression)

[@dayd7420]

1. SHOULDERS for MMA (Weight BB/DB/Cable) Phil Daru -Cuban Press (keep the elbows up high and dont drop them down when raising up the weights into a scarecrow position, proceed to shoulder press up in the air with palms facing front, make sure not to round your back when bringing the weights back down with palms facing the back) -Serrano Press (on a 45 degree bench in a position looking similar to inverted Y's, making sure neck is above the headrest) -Banded Facepull 1. CORE for Boxing & MMA (Weight BB/DB/Cable) Phil Daru kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHOzhXWXmtqcmZo -Farmer carry walks with kettlebell (keep shoulders retracted back for core) (for using muscles working together synergystically to increase movement quality) (walk 1 step at a time, stopping with the back heel up as if to generate punch force, make sure to grab the ground and stay rooted with the feet, then side bend with flexion, coming back up with the kettlebell while taking the next step to repeat this again) Bear crawls w/ ab roller (for anti rotation and anti flexion. works the serratus, errectus abdominals & obliques, be sure to keep the nuetral position of the spine not letting the base cave forward) 1. CORE Rotational KO Power & Stability (Weight BB/DB/Cable & Bands) Phil Daru kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5PFp3ltdtSKl5I -Banded rotating core twists 3-4 x 8-10 reps (activates power through obliques, transverse abdominals & glutes) (get into a 90/90 position & setup by driving hips into extension so when you pull the band past midline, you will have tension throughout the whole range of motion. Start by getting up into position, squeezing glutes, locking out both hips forward with a straight stable base keeping your knees in line with the band) (interlock both hands on the band keeping posture, next pull the band with your far side hand first, pulling the band to the midline & back, ensuring you have a tight core, posture & squeezing glutes & abductor when you pull the band, connecting all the muscles within the movement) kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2mTqGx_nbt4Z6M (with kettlebells) -Turkish getup with bottoms up kettlebell hold 15-25 lbs (for core & trunk stability & grip strength) (lock down your lat on the side of the kettlebell making sure the scapula is retracted, keeping one knee up on the same side the kettlebell is up, plant the other hand out to the side, brace your core and sit straight up where the kettlebell is over your head, plant the other hand behind you now to be up before the heels push your hips up follow by pushing with your heels down against the ground driving your hips up squeezing your glutes maintaining position stability with the obliques, slowly bringing the kettlebell down, bringing the other hand back out to the side of you, making sure you activate and hit every vertebrae on the way back down) -Kettlebell anti-rotation core pulls 50lb kettlebell or heavy (for internal & external obliques, transverse abdominal & full core stability) (start out with your hands out on the ground like a pushup shoulder width with feet out wide keeping a straight spine, next reach underneath where the kettlebell is facing down and pull it through to the other side using ur lats, romboids & rear delts pulling through with no abdomiinal crunching when crossing the arm under to get the kettlebell, instead maintain a straight stable core & shoulders staying upright when you pull underneath through to the other side with the kettlebell, not reaching too far rotating the body)

So I only have 30-45 minutes a week to put towards strength training as I work full time and train MMA for around 8-10 hours a week. What would be the most beneficial way to allocate that time to see noticeable improvements in my game?

[@yangtroy1]

How do you only have 45 mins a week for strength training but 10 hrs for mma

[@bibekkahlon6105]

You could probably do like a 10 minute kb exercise set everyday. Im sure that could help with dividing up your time throughout the week and maybe even doing it a couple times a day.

would the KB coil to press work as a substitute for a landline press? - asking for the people who don’t have access to a landline press :)

Yes it could be a sub out

@@PhilDaruStrong thank you Sooooooooo much for replying to my question. I’m gonna start #FightReady for the 2nd time around in a few weeks and will use the KB coil press as a substitute. - My Muay Thai gym is at a temporary location, so all the barbell + S&C equipment is in storage, and I’m doing my strength work at a big box gym that only has Smith Machines.
