[@nicholaskizer8298]

I want to answer your question! Typically fighters don’t like lifting due to loving the art of fighting, so much that we want to put all of our time into the training. Anytime we lift, we feel as if we’ve taken from the skill work. I used to have this mindset until I understood the physical side to things can help fix imbalances and improve performance. Your app is awesome and takes the guess work out of things, I’ve been sticking to the program for 6 weeks now and the performance benefits are noticeable. 45 mins 3x a week per recommended for boxing and I can’t believe I ever thought lifting was a waste of time.

[@kd3655]

Also DOMs doesnt help. Anyone who trains knows its incredibly difficult to train after a leg day or something. Avoiding failure helps though

[@cleito001]

Hmm, that may be the case for some, but I don't think that is the best logic for why fighters don't want to lift. Sports where weigh ins are a time where you're fighting off every ounce you don't need (wrestling), I don't care for enormous calves or glutes but I most certainly care about my neck, chest arms, quads, etc. It's difficult to know what exact lifts will for certain contribute muscle weight I'll be happy to have versus weight that's not going to contribute anything besides numbers to the scale. A certain way to know I'm strengthening wrestling/fighting muscles is by... Wrestling/fighting.

[@nicholaskizer8298]

@@cleito001 I can only speak for myself and everyone else that I train with. Weight gain is not the primary concern for us, resistance training is most definitely encouraged for everyone excluding beginners. It’s not good knowledge to discourage weight training, you will not gain weight and it will not slow you down like it’s preached from old school times. Muscle can’t grow effectively when you don’t eat enough. So it’s either an overeating issue, a crashed metabolism, or you are fighting at a lower weight than you should.

[@Donte-mh4su]

I understand, weight junkies think they can fight because they are strong and fit yet they think skills training is a waste. Wrong! It goes both ways technicians should lift and lifters need to actually acquire skills by actually fighting.

[@spencerjapheth9883]

I don’t think people understand. He’s not talking about bodybuilding. He’s not talking about physique. He’s talking about lifting weight for strength and power. If you know how to lift weights correctly, and for the right purpose, you will develop strength and power without increasing yourmuscle mass too much. Track athletes are not bodybuilders, but yet they still train in the weight room for strength and power not hypertrophy.

[@cafeapaka7501]

Love the movements. Some thoughts, the body does not know the difference between bodyweight and a barbell but that being said there is a difference between open and closed chained exercises and how they activate either individual muscles or combination of muscles - of course depending on your weight, bodyweight exercises can be more challenging than a barbell. The benefit of bodyweight exercises is it allows you to gain better awareness and control of your body in a space and that they can be adapted with minimal equipment, still it should be noted the use of weighted clothing or a weight vest is beneficial if you can perform particular exercises at higher repetitions especially in your off season. The benefit of dumbbells, barbells and machines are the ability to adjust with exact increments the load which will be different for specific exercises and different athletes, bodyweight is harder to regulate offsetting a load using various angles or positions. The exercises here are a combination of strength training (which is effective for building a base of strength and stability in the joints and muscles) and Plyometrics which build explosiveness or power (which is a combination of strength and speed.) You could separate the modalities for peak performance- build a base of strength in the off season (no plyometrics yet) and later after building your base then incorporate the plyos to add power and explosiveness. Of course both cycles will include your sport specific training. The reason for the separation is because it is difficult to sustain peak performance over a long period, - it is hard on the body over time and can lead to injury or burn out. This is something you may see with athletes in sports with long playing seasons but I think this phenomenon can be managed better by fighters

[@Kickassyourcomfortzone]

i start climbing 1-2 in a week and its good too

[@Brandon-gw4ed]

The reasons why we don't like lifting weights combat athletes, is that there are several. 1. Time: The time spent lifting we could be instead training our particular discipline. A lot of us are not pros yet, so we still work, and adding a weight-lifting routine is more time away with the little time we have. 2. The added muscle can make you feel slower. The bigger the muscle, the heavier the muscle, the slower you get. But I believe you develop more power, so... 3. So much stress on the joints, especially if you are grappling. Striking is a bit different, but it can still stress the joints. 4. Some folks just don't want to do it 😂

[@user-fh2gt2po8r]

Idk, I've trained martial arts before and now when I think about it if I had bigger muscles I would've been more protected and stuff(personal opinion)

[@MassemHaider]

[@dzen_dzenkazan8050]

Looks like point of view, that weight lifting is bad for fighters are going away from minds. In the past i heard pretty often, that weights are slowing u down. Of course, if you train in heavier diapason it can slow you down. But with proper load and technique it's good for u

[@nattokami9598]

I think this comes down to not understanding the difference between training for POWER vs HYPERTROPHY. Fighters and professional athletes should be training for POWER by lifting heavy, doing less reps (less than 10), resting more. This improves speed and power output instead of making you bulky.

[@traininsaiyan-]

[@brahamwijaya1039]

Sit ups on ur back is good for beginners and i think its more specific. because fighters stand straight they dont bend body while taking shots. The function of core and sit ups is to resist spine extension. having straight spine and elevated head while doing leg raises stimulate it sufficiently. however, if you are one of those crazy black athletes who does situps on situp bench without back support while holding on a big weight. Well idont know what to say.

[@Johnnyweilder]

The reason we don’t love weightlifting while also training is because in sparring you’re literally taking heavy kicks to the legs and arms. Lifting weights as its own thing can be dangerous and lead to injury. Now throw in taking big shots to the elbows, your knees, etc. Imagine squatting heavy the day after your sparring partner repeatedly tried to chop your leg in half That being said, I still weight lift lol you just have to be extra safe, making sure that nothing is out of alignment
