Underground MMA Conditioning: Hardcore Martial Arts Training Secrets

I've decided to reveal to the world my hardcore, underground Jeet Kune Do Martial Arts training secrets.  I guarantee you that no other Martial Arts fight team trains using the powerful, proprietary methods we use to demolish the competition.

Enjoy, and train hard!


Power Swings:
gradually increasing the intensity as your body adjusts to the awesomeness.


The Extreme Rocket:
perform in sets of three minute intervals with one minute breaks.  For an advanced progression try these with one hand waving in the air.  (note: if you don't have access to a rocket, any of the various zoo animals or other vehicles are acceptable, but the rocket offers the highest performance boost)


Dynamic Slide Accelerations:
these are coupled with Bunny Hops back to the top of the sliding apparatus.  Be careful to maintain good posture with the overhead arm raises and contagious smiles.


Monkey Hangs: best if performed to failure.  Funny faces and monkey sounds will earn you a gold star.


Cool down with some stretches on the swings.


If you have time, you might want to jog a little . . .


. . . and maybe go for some uphill sprints.  I hear these can be pretty good.


Oh, and a little contact sparring might help :)

This is the awesomest martial art post ever. As a recovering martial art geek myself, what a rarity to find martial artists with a sense of humor and playfulness. Rock on!

Hi Mark, thanks for visiting!

I appreciate the comments. I'm a serious martial artist who doesn't take himself too seriously . . . if that makes any sense.

It's all about fun and enjoying life.
