3 weeks out for @tommullen_
Quick look into his strength session. Session stays simple and intentional ⤵ļø
⢠Power work first ā high output while fresh
⢠Strength work next ā maintaining force production
⢠Accessories last ā supporting tissue and robustness
As camp progresses, the goal isnāt to chase fatigue, itās to keep key qualities in place while skill work takes priority.
Structured work. Consistent preparation.
Big win for @bad_kiatphontip_217
Dominant performance from start to finish, making it 5-0 on the ONE Championship stage. Very bright future ahead!

Hereās an example of how i structure a lactic conditioning session for combat athletes.
Short, hard efforts.
Planned recovery.
Enough fatigue to build tolerance without killing skill or power.
If you want more context, comment CONDITIONING
and Iāll send you a free example week covering aerobic, alactic, and lactic work.

Iām not antiāconventional deadlifts.
I just prefer tools that give me high force output with lower cost for most fighters.
The trap bar lets athletes:
⢠Produce force safely
⢠Load heavy without unnecessary fatigue
⢠Recover better around skill training
Strength should support performance ā not interfere with it.

3 UPPERBODY POWER EXERCISES
Upper body power isnāt built by lifting slowly.
Itās built by producing force fast.
These are 3 upper body power exercises I use with fighters to improve speed, power, rate of force development and transfer into strikes.
Remember train power whilst fresh!
Low fatigue!
Max intent each rep!

Hereās why I rarely program running for my fighters.
Itās not because running is ābad.ā
Itās because tools like the AirBike, rower, and SkiErg allow better control of intensity, output, and recovery.
That means:
⢠Clear aerobic intent
⢠Lower impact
⢠Less interference with skill & power work
Conditioning should be specific, repeatable, and intentional ā not just tradition.

ā Don't make this mistake. Most fighters turn Alactic work into cardio.
True alactic conditioning is: ⢠Short
⢠Explosive
⢠Fully recovered
It trains power repeatability, not fatigue.
Save this š
Follow for conditioning that actually transfers to fights.
