  • Fighters Five a Roadmap for Developing Relentless, Explosive Fighters Foundation of Developing Physical Fighters
    FIGHTERS FIVE A ROADMAP FOR DEVELOPING RELENTLESS, EXPLOSIVE FIGHTERS FOUNDATION OF DEVELOPING PHYSICAL FIGHTERS POWER STRENGTH ENDURANCE HEALTH YOU’RE A COMBAT ATHLETE hether you’re a fighter or grappler, you chose to Wcompete in one of the toughest sports that exist. Champions in these sports are built over time, with consistency, hard work, planning, attention to detail, monitoring and adjusting along the way. There is no quick fix, shortcut, easy way to the top At the highest levels everybody is talented and tough. The difference between them and the thousands of others gunning for the Number One Spot? Winners take consistent, massive action towards improving themselves every week. Top athletes must organize their whole life around improving their mindset, skill, strength, conditioning, recovery, nutrition and more. And most importantly: winners have an absolute, crystal-clear vision of Who They Are and Where They Are Going. They are constantly analyzing and assessing throughout camp and then making adjustments to address their specific situation. SIMPLY GRINDING & WORKING HARD IS NOT ENOUGH TELL ME IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU: • You consume so much information, you are confused about what to do. • You find yourself subscribing to old-school, outdated training methods. • Your workouts are more about building mental toughness (“building character”) than improving athleticism. • Whether you train alone or with a team of coaches, you lack a coordinated plan of action. • You try to mimic or train like your favorite athletes. • You don’t test or monitor any aspect of your training, your body, or your health. • You have bowed to the altar of high intensity training, no days off and are grinding yourself into a deep hole.
