Sam Mitchell

This 8 week training programme is designed for grapplers looking to improve strength both on and off the mats.

Physically dominate your opponents with the strength built following this plan, whilst addressing physical qualities specific to grappling.

This programme contains 2 full body training sessions per week which is ideal for fitting around grappling training.

There's a couple of different training practices in this plan you may not have used before but guidelines are also provided to help you through navigating how to get the most from your gym sessions whilst maximising training on the mats.

Sport Specific Approach
This training plan is built with the mindset of maximising performance on the mats without over-doing training in the gym. Grappling comes first and this plan is designed to ensure that stays the case, and not just another bodybuilding plan with different branding.
