Fighters, grapplers, and Martial Artists of /fit/, how do you train?
>What MAs do you practice?
>How's your lifting routine like?
>Do you do active recovery?
>How's your diet?
Me:
>Kyokushin 2hrs/4x week
>AB full body splits 3-4x/week. Mostly DB stuff so as to not overload my recovery
>Running or Yoga on off days. Foam Rolling sometimes.
>Mostly meat, vegetables, and rice. I drink a lot of milk too because eating solid food in the morning makes me feel a little sick.

I would honestly rather get cancer than be kicked by Crocop.
>MMA training, 3-4x per week
>Lift weights 2-3x per week
>Swim occasionally on off days (currently more of this with back injury)
>fairly clean, lean meat + rice/pasta + green veg almost every day
Annoyed that I can't train right now, it's fun :(
>Labral tear 7 days/week
>Non existent
>Running to combat severe depression
>Eating just absolute fucking garbage because I can't wrestle, roll or randori

>kyokushin
>finally gets in fight

Then you aren't doing them right.
Me:
>BJJ 2hrs/3x week (I'm a hobbyist, not going to Pans)

>Take random days off.
>90/10 Paleo/non-paleo.

Dear Muay Thai/Kickboxing bros of /fit/
My trainer organized a fightnight last year and something has bothered me since.
4 of our guys fought there and they were visibly lacking explosivity and grit compared to the fighters of other gyms. What the fuck do you guys do to get that explosivity down?
>>41051270
I always think of power/explosiveness as a consequence of proper technique. If you're sure that your guys' technique is solid, then they probably gassed out before the other fighters. I'd say work on endurance, and maybe mental toughness...although 5x5 in the big lifts won't hurt as long as you keep your priorities straight.
What's your full week routine like?
I mean how do you fit the ma and lifting in together, you alternate days? Do ma on your lifting rest days? both on same days? if so what do you do first and do they have negative effects on each other?
Also for somebody who is a noob when it comes to both would you recommend starting one first over the other or just going ahead and starting both?
>>41052155
Thing is, our fighters were very good technically. Mental toughness would be the best explanation
>>41051270
wrestling/boxing. easily.
The only two disciplines that have explosive/intense practices. Easily the most exhausted I've ever been

OP here. I usually lift in the morning and go to the dojo at night in the same days (m-w-f-sat). I feel like having full recovery days is very helpful. I know people who alternate. It's up to you.
I'd say start both but take your time and keep your goals straight. If you wanna be a fighter, resistance training is important, but sports-specific training is king. If you're deadlifting 3x a week and breaking PRs, but feel to fried to spar properly, then scale back on the lifting.

I come to /fit/ so I can shitpost and forget that I also have a labral tear and have to go easy on training and I see this shit.
How are you putting up with it? Kineseology? I'm starting kineseology soon to treat it but I don't know what to expect. Thankfully it's an extremely mild case.
