Combat Sports Performance Program - Fundamental Phase

This 4 week program builds you a solid base of strength and conditioning. It is the first block of a 16 week training program that will prepare you to handle more work and training in the weight room and for your skills training.

Are you tired of feeling gassed in your training sessions? Are you the weakest person in your gym? Unmotivated by your current strength and conditioning routine, or maybe you don’t have one? I understand how frustrating it can be to struggle with these challenges, and that's why I have created my fundamentals program for combat sport athletes who need a strength and conditioning program that produces results.

A 4 week strength and conditioning program to build up your base level of strength, power, conditioning and explosiveness to complement all combat sports.

Restore movement to your body so it can be expressed in your combat sport. Gain strength relative to your sport through quality training.

Fundamental Strength and Conditioning will get you to the next level in just 4 weeks.

A program for combat sport athletes
Written from experience, trial and error. The foundation of combat sport success lies in a training program that caters to your technical and tactical sessions - not the other way round. This program will emphasize the importance of efficient training to complement your combat sport.

Gain relative strength and conditioning
Gone are the days of tiring circuits used to just beat you down. With my fundamentals program you will be pairing practical and relative strength and conditioning training with your technical/skill training. This will leave you feeling energised, stronger and ready for your combat sports training or competitions.

A program written from experience
This program has been used effectively from the hobbyist all the way through to the professional combat sport athlete. Through my own experience as a competitive combat sport athlete (BJJ and Kickboxing) I have designed a program that is going to enhance your strength, conditioning and movement quality.
