oly lifts, power lifting… only comes second to technique.
no its not sport specific, or nearly as useful as perfecting the rubber gaurd, omaplata, any takedown, etc etc… all of which will be limited with fatigued and spent leg muscles.

more clean and jerk. LOL. i cant remember the last time an oly lifter was successful at MMA.

I never said anything about Olympic lifters being succesfull @ MMA. That makes no sense. Im talking MMA guys lifting Oly. Read an MMA blog…its not that unheard of. I also never said anything about lifting taking a priorty over technique…once again…no sense. I stated i found no problem working both back to back.[/quote]

And yet you’re preaching ‘more clean and jerk’. your words, not mine.

And yes, I know mma fighters do oly lifts. they also do crossfit, kettlebells, caveman training, TRX, calisthenics, and etc etc. None of that means shit if you suck in the cage.
So stop tellin this kid ‘more clean and jerk’.

Are you training to be a cage fighter bro???[/quote]

here comes the rageee
dust it off and move on kiddo[/quote]

“none of this means shit if you suck in the cage” you said it dude. Why would anyone be in a “cage” if they didnt belong being there? valid arguement fail.

dust my nuts off and move on kiddo

it really depends on your goals? but you deff always want to get stronger with that said you should be strength training at least 2x a week. from articles and my past Strength coaches id say at least 3x a week but shoot for 4. as long as you eat enough rest enough your body will recover for your technique training. Strength training makes your body strong and helps your heart. always try and do the technique training before you lift. jiu jitsu early lift late. if thats an option for you. hope that helps.
