  • We brought on UFC coach, Adam Lerner, to talk about the science behind strength & conditioning for boxing and MMA fighters, because one of the most common questions we get on FIGHTTIPS is: "should fighters lift weights?" Coach Adam and Shane discuss different programs and theories based on body types, Muhammad Ali & Mike Tyson's regimen, and the importance of joint stability exercises for injury prevention and developing power.

      you a big midget: dont lift a lot of weight you are already strong, focus on the technique

      @@knuckle-sandwichmma681 Why not lift weight if you're strong? You should work with your genetics!
      You should be focused on the technique all the time, lifts without proper technique can be harmful for you.
      I'm not talking about the camps only, I'm talking about lifestyle. You shouldn't be sore before fights (tbh some people prefer to be so, but it's really rare) to be quick and feel well, but that doesn't meant you can't lift. You still can build muscle without getting sore if you apply proper techniques and most importantly allow your body to rest and rebuild via nutrition and good sleep.

      'A lot' can be interpreted in a different ways. You should be focused on your MMA, etc. Trainings, but you should lift. A lot may mean 6 trainings per week, or 3 per week. IMO you should be doing both, but focus on your fighting trainings and mix strength trainings into your week plan.

    In addition to running, heavy bag, and sparring, Mike Tyson did 10 conditioning sessions every day. Each session was 200 body weight squats, 200 decline sit ups, 50 push ups, 50 bench dips, 50 shrugs (with 65 lbs), and neck bridges exercises. After he got out of prison, he got "lazy" and started lifting weights instead. His fighting weight increased by 20 pounds while his speed, mobility, and defense declined drastically.

      @j.l.4054 4 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      +Mike90 susanoo I agree with the 5x5 - the concern about weight training is a.) are you bulking up to the point that you're slowing down/restricting your range of motion that's necessary for fighting (which will also cause your endurance to suffer), and b.) are you investing too much time into it at the expense of your skill development.
      5x5 is a good methodology because 5 rep sets aren't optimal for hypertrophy (building muscle size), but are excellent for strength. One other thing you'll want to watch out for (which they mentioned and I guess are doing another video about) is stabilizing muscles - SPECIFICALLY things like your rotator cuff... When you're lifting like this, it's really easy for your strength of your main muscle groups to sprint ahead of your stabilizer muscles, and it's going to cause a lot of problems. Not only can you very easily strain your rotator cuff because of the imbalance (to the point that it just hurts all the time), but you can also just straight up tear that shit. I'm specifically bringing up the rotator cuff because that's what happened to me before I got into boxing - I was big into lifting weights from like 14 - 18 years old, but I didn't know jack shit so I was only doing main lifts without the other important stuff. I ended up fucking up my right rotator cuff and one of my discs in my thorassic spine so badly that I was in pain for like 5 years. I started boxing at 19 (I should add I wasn't even huge either - I'm 6'2" and was about 200 lb when I started boxing training and then cut down to 178 for light heavy) and that's when I started to see the whole picture of everything that's required for training and started working out all the stabilizing muscles & focusing on my core a lot more - but I was so imbalanced that it took years to fix the foundation.
      Just build a smart plan with all this and you got it bro. Best of luck to you!

Now that I don't lift as often and as heavy and am stretching every morning and incorporated more cardio in my daily regime, I feel more flexible and energetic. I have more control over my caloric intake and can even breath better now. I did try Muay Thai with no weight training but I felt a lack of power coming from my back so I HAVE TO have some type of weight training in my life.

    Definitely been interested in this for a while so thank you Shane! My main focus is on boxing, but I also want to build some muscle mass. So, I have been quite curious if the muscle activation through boxing alone will allow you to realistically build some muscle mass.

      carl91 not enough tension on the muscle in performing boxing movements alone. Should be supplemented with basic strength exercises that will allow you to perform the skills of boxing with more force, speed and power. Basic strength exercises include squat pattern, hinge or deadlift pattern, pressing pattern (e.g bench press, shoulder press, landmine press), pulling patterns (rows, chin-ups) some punch specific core work may be added such as the pallof press which was shown briefly in the video...follow boxingscience on Instagram for information they have some great stuff

    Force = Mass x Acceleration it's obvious. But my question is huge triceps can generate more power, at the same time it can reduce acceleration (if im right). Fighters should stay ideal muscle amount or try to increase ? For example stick with 15inch arm size and train more about fight or always go with both sides ? Which one ...
    PLUS---> Anthony Joshua's body and Deontay Wilder's body should be reviewed by Coach Adam. About cardiovascular capacity, power, speed, acceleration. At the end of the day Joshua have more muscle but i think Wilder hit harder than Joshua because of acceleration.
    Thanks for good quality :)

      Nice geek details. Which is exactly we want to see. Because boxing not %100 physically, need brain muscles too. I think best heavyweight Tyson Fury because of flexibility, movement,footwork etc. Having huge muscle problem for stamina, looking for big right hand all night problem for your own stamina and ring IQ. That can be another subject for a new video.

    Im a big believer in what i call stress training. This isn't used we first begin and are trying to understand basic movements. When sufficient experience is aquired to somewhat understand movements being trained. We begin including a warm-up that significantly increases heart rate this increases to 1 hr of general athleticism. Trying to out perform yesterday type intensity. This primes us to learn movements as an instictive flinch. The movements and drills are being practiced under stress conditions. This dramaticlly changes the rate of performance understress is aquired. Strength is very important in all combatives, especially in the hips. Deep squats and explosive hip movements build this. To build power inspiration can be drawn from power lifters. Wieghts are a very stable way to train these extremes decreasing rates of injury.

      Yeah but don't do weight training in this week because you have fight next week and u can't change in one week because your body is used to body weight training so don't disturb your muscles at the end week of your fight. Start weight training after your fight and best of luck for your fight.

    Great video!
    Strength and conditioning for fighters simply put is building or increasing their athletic base in a way that won't severely interfere with their sport specific training (skills training aka the punching, kicking, grappling part). The athletic base is composed of explosive power, conditioning, and body integrity (flexibility and joint integrity). They only brushed on a few superficial points here concerning actual useful information.
    Look into Team Juggernaut Fitness, as they coach bjj guys and have a fantastic strength and conditioning team. Also Coach Phil Daru is a gem.
    Side note on body types: there are (generally speaking) only practically two types of people. naturally athletic and explosive people and people who have to learn athleticism. You'll find people who can move their bodies with ease and mirror your form perfectly and then you have people who trip over their own feet learning a footwork drill. Type Athletic is much easier to train and requires less stimuli to elicit tangible results and will almost always respond to any sort of training. While type uncoordinated will take much more effort to train and their programming will have to be very specific for optimal progress.

    Tell Adam he’s got a great side profile but he should face the camera a little more when talking. 😁 Also, I think another reason why incorporating some weight lifting in your workouts is that it’s proven to prevent sport injuries, especially for the younger guys and gals who are fight training since their bodies are still developing, but also for adults as well. But like Adam said, it has to be catered to your body type. I’m not a fighter but I do kickboxing on a bag and lift weights/resistance train and I love researching ways to help myself become better and stronger. Great video!
