Conor is a PERFECT example of what Mike was saying at 3:40. He's naturally athletic, and genetically gifted, but you can see the difference in his career when his "structure" started to break down. When everything in his life was built around his fighting, he was winning titles. When all the other business/celebrity/family/leisure/luxury aspects started to creep in, he was still able to compete at a high level because of the abilities he had developed throughout the years, but he wasn't able to perform at the level he once did

As an engineer, your knowledge of physics impresses me. So many exercise science majors don’t know jack about physics. Same with the general public. For instance, people like to complain about modern cars crumpling in collisions. Yes, older cars were literal tanks. Your car would survive the crash- but you wouldn’t. Because your body still has all that inertia and absorbs the crash energy. Air bags and crumple zones take the FORCE and spread it out over a longer period of TIME, that is they intentionally change the impulse. The air bag helps to reduce your body’s inertia slowly. The crumple zones help to reduce the vehicle’s inertia slowly and to absorb the force of the crash. Every crumple is energy that would otherwise have transferred into your body. Your car won’t survive the crash but you will. That’s impulse saving your life.

Last month I finished my capstone project for my MS on MMA athlete development. It feels really nice to hear an expert in the field come to a similar conclusion as I did: Circuit training is common in the MMA community but is likely a suboptimal training style for the athletes. Strength, SAQ, etc. should be trained separately to maximize physical attributes brought into competition. Love it.
@BigBADSTUFF697 ай бұрын
probably depends what the goal is, I think it helps endurance more than strength but that's typically the goal rather than increasing top end strength.
@garrettwebb19477 ай бұрын
@@BigBADSTUFF69 absolutely. Circuit/HIIT is great for improving metabolic fitness and the anaerobic energy systems. High levels are required for comp and often a goal. I think, and it's just an opinion, that non-periodized training (which statistically is common) in trained athletes (have been doing this for a year+), and who are commonly in a caloric deficit, the only noticeable (not technical) advancements will be to anaerobic fitness; not strength. It can be argued that power improves, but in trained athletes that is unlikely as many circuits will vary and progressive overload may possibly be non-existent. That's what I've seen in the research and with limited work with ammy and pro MMA athletes at local gyms. Some of them have bought in so we'll see if the changes I've implemented yield noticeable results over the next year. For most of them, circuits are limited (if at all) and traditional training techniques are being used (similar to what Dr. Mike said; split physical and technical training).

His argument was a strawman and he supposed Conor was training for power through circuit training and used thast as an example of: why not train power separately for optimal benefits. Doesnt he know about power endurance and strength endurance? Training those is exactly why circuit training is so useful. You do explosive movements with a little rest time and that's what happens during competition also. Doing just cardio like running on a treadmill wont increase, Im prettu sure atleast, your upper body power/strength endurance. Point is to simulate what happens during matches. If you purely train power and running well ok but what does that tell us about your upper body endurance. You might gas out after few explosive movements.

Would be interesting if building 'peak power', and 'building peak power when you're tired' are optimised with different training. Dr Mike covers the best way to achieve the former (ie don't do it when tired) but this might be different in the latter.

Hey Mike, regarding the circuit portion ;couldn’t you argue that he’s also training for the endurance aspect as well? While performing power. Seeing as when he’s boxing he’s usually going for more than a round
@jasonmack27187 ай бұрын
I think Dr. Mike's approach still applies here. If you want to improve your power and endurance, you can use sport specific drills separated from your weight training. I.e. rounds of strikes and combinations with 90%+ power.

circuits are commonly designed to work antagonist muscle groups every next set. that is how you get rest and don't waste time while also doing "non stop" work for cardio. it is great for time economy. Conor's circuit seems to be designed perfectly for that.

I think this advice at the end would apply to CrossFit as well. Often we do circuits which doesn’t allow you to really train the muscles for optimizing strength training.

Don't worry, Dr Mike - Ireland is part of the British Isles. Just never say that it's part of Great Britain (which is the island which has most of Scotland, Wales and England on it), or the United Kingdom (which also includes the islands around the place plus Northern Ireland, but not Ireland). Yes, it's as confusing as f*ck, even to British people like me.

Circuits, specifically for combat sports, the way I've always viewed it, are more of a mental preparation. Fighting against a certain caliber of opponent will push you beyond your limits, so in the ring, you're gonna have to keep on going when you're dead tired already, whether you want to or not. A circuit simulates that. While in the gym you have the luxury of resting whenever you want for however long you deem optimal, an opponent in the ring won't let you do that.

As I've transitioned from a fighter to a weight lifter I definitely agree with the critiques, here. It's just not practical to take rests and treat strength as its own thing. Your training time is already being CONSUMED by technique/drills for other, dare I say it, more important things. 9/10 on the critique. While I generally agree with the ideas, as a fighter, strength just has to be a secondary consideration, unless you are a heavy weight, as strength in that weight class is quite the different animal

Circuits can build confidence. It helps to know that you can produce so much force when exhausted. Because fighting incorporates strength, explosiveness, cardio etc. It helps the athlete know that their other training is paying off when they can crush a difficult circuit even if they aren't the most optimal for each of those attributes. Circuits do, however, tend towards poor design. From my fighting days, I recall thinking more than once: "Why in the hell is THIS exercise in this circuit?!?" Nowadays, I just make sure my circuit has a full serving of badadoes.
