If you want to Build Muscle, Lose Fat and look like a MMA fighter without steroids, good genetics, or throwing precious time and hard-earned money down the drain at the gym...then read on. We've all seen the fantastic physiques of the MMA fighters at the various fight tournaments on TV and admire the incredible mix of strength, power and speed. It's also the aesthetics of their physiques - the powerful legs, and lean arms, ripped chest, all tapering to and perhaps the most important - a tight flat stomach. That is the type of physique that gets attention and if you're interested in creating that physique then i can help. The great thing about a Mixed Martial Arts body is they are achievable, they aren't some freak of nature like a bodybuilder with ludicrous conditioning. You can achieve this look if you put the work in. I'm going to give you a balls-to-the wall workout routine to get this physique. This workout can work on it's own to build the MMA physique and it can work with your currant MMA training or specific martial arts. This is a full 2 week training and diet manual that you simply follow and repeat. It is varied enough for you to keep using forever and to manipulate if you see fit. The book contains: 26 Chapters jammed full of training regimes and dietary plans 12 full muscle bulging workouts to manipulate to continually experiment with that trains the entire body twice over the 2 weeks The workouts include weights and body weight moves to explosive exercises All 2 weeks of diet and nutrition including protein shakes Laid out simply for at-a-glance if you're on the go at the gym or training at home. --Firstly... I keep things simple - no B.S rubbish about doing LESS training and eating LESS and how there is some SECRET holding you back. How did the bodybuilders in the 60's and 70's look so great? Training frequency and nutrition. How and what - that's the only secret. But you've probably been doing some of the things right but not all - that's where this book can help you. I focus on 3 simple cornerstones... --Training Frequency Don't worry you don't need to follow months of weird training routines - mine is two weeks - and repeat.

I lay out all the routines 'at-a-glance' for quick checking on your phone or tablet while at the gym. We train with weights and without using bodyweight explosive moves. We're building strength, power and stamina. --BodyFat Through the intensity of the workouts and the nutritional plan we are going to reduce your body fat. Why? Your Testosterone is utilized at it's best when you have a lower body fat percentage. --Nutrition Nutrition is considered the most important part of building muscle. If the nutrition is incorrect then it doesn't matter how impeccable your training routines are, you will not progress. I'm sure you have an idea about nutrition, but I'm here to give your knowledge a little boast. You've heard of high protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats? But what is the most effective foods to eat to get those essential nutrients. I include a days meal plan with every day of training. Finally... I also go into the tips for maximizing size including what supplements to use and when. I also go into tips for maximizing training intensity - Supersets and TUT. This is all about power and guts - it's time to create that MMA Body that you always wanted whether you train in MMA, a specific martial arts or simply want to look great, this workout will really help you.

Mixed martial arts (MMA) is an emergent sport where competitors in a ring or cage utilize strikes (punches, kicks, elbows and knees) as well as submission techniques to defeat opponents. This book explores the carnal experience of fighting through a sensory ethnography of MMA, and how it transgresses the cultural scripts of masculinity in popular culture. Based on four years of participant observation in a local MMA club and in-depth interviews with amateur and professional MMA fighters, Spencer documents fighters' training regimes and the meanings they attach to participation in the sport. Drawing from the philosophical phenomenology of Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Jean-Luc Nancy, this book develops bodies-centered ontological and epistemological grounding for this study. Guided by such a position, it places bodies at the center of analysis of MMA and elucidates the embodied experience of pain and injury, and the sense and rhythms of fighting.

100 muscle-building, fat-burning recipes, with meal plans to sculpt your warrior body Ever wonder how professional MMA fighters in the UFC prepare their bodies for fights? The real training often starts in the kitchen, where the right meals at the right times can give fighters everything they need to be ready for their next match. Fighters fuel their bodies with precise nutrients delivered at specific times to achieve their functional physiques--and now you can too. The Fighter's Kitchen provides expert guidance on what and when to eat, and it helps you understand how our bodies use what we eat to burn fat and build lean, strong muscle. Through phased weekly meal plans, expert insight on how and when to take full advantage of your body's muscle-building capabilities, and 100 delicious recipes, you'll find yourself looking ring ready even if you have no plans to step into one. ---------- "Chris has been my in-camp nutritionist for two-plus years and has worked with me for five training camps in a row. With his help and cooking skills, I've been able to train harder and make weight easier. I was instantly amazed with how much food I was able to eat and still lose weight. Many of the recipes in this book are not only healthy, but they also look and taste great!" - Daniel Jacobs, current IBF world middleweight boxing champion and former WBA world middleweight boxing champion "This book helped me lean up and perform better during training and competition without feeling like I'm on a diet or having cravings. The recipes Chris give you are simple, delicious, and nutritious. It's an easy-to-follow lifestyle and the results have been amazing for me-and they'll be tremendous for you." - Aung La Nsang, professional MMA fighter and current ONE world middleweight champion and ONE world light heavyweight champion "Chris Algieri is one of the biggest and most fit boxers at his weight class and is a world champion. He makes me confident that not only will I make weight, but I will also perform at my peak performance. He made specific adjustments for my body type and has a great understanding of individual needs. This book will be a great resource for anybody." - Dennis Bermudez, retired UFC fighter "Chris has helped me with my diet for my entire 10-year career in mixed martial arts. He has helped with my day-to-day nutrition in and out of fight camps, my weight-cut protocol, and my rehydration program for after weigh-ins, which to me are the most important. Chris doesn't only tell you what to eat and when to eat it, but he also breaks down how every person's body is different and reacts to certain foods different and he explains why I should eat certain foods and why eating them at a specific time is so important. Having him on my team absolutely gave me a tremendous advantage over my competition. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my diet." - Ryan LaFlare, retired UFC fighter "I've been an athlete my entire life, but nutrition has always overwhelmed me. We live in a culture of fad diets. Consumers are taught to believe you need to starve in order to lose weight. As a result, the public, like me, gets overwhelmed and discouraged. We tend to starve ourselves to lose weight, and when we can't take it anymore, we binge. Chris's book has made it finally possible for me to break that cycle. I realize eating healthy doesn't mean I have to be hungry. It doesn't have to be boring. Not only do I notice a difference in my physical appearance, but the difference in my mood is also amazing. I can think clearer and feel generally happier just by finally finding a way to maintain healthy eating habits. I think this book serves value to not only those competing but also to anyone looking to make positive changes in their health!" - Sarah Thomas, 2018 New York Golden Gloves winner "Having known Chris and seeing the way he eats for a few years now, I've seen with my own eyes the superhuman capabilities it gives someone when they get their nutrition on point. I absolutely love that he's not only finally sharing a taste of his secret recipes but also a ton of educational content so one can make it relevant to their own lifestyle and delivered using a system that seems very simple to implement." - Avril Mathie, professional boxer and Miss Swimsuit USA International 2015

UFC 285 is one of the events of the Ultimate Fighting Championship that took place on May 30, 2020. It was scheduled to take place in Astana Arena, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was moved to the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada. The main event of UFC 285 was a welterweight bout between former champion Tyron Woodley and Gilbert Burns. Woodley, who held the title for three years, was looking to reclaim it after losing it to Kamaru Usman in 2019. Burns, on the other hand, was on a five-fight winning streak and looking to make a statement in his first main event in the UFC. Apart from the main event, UFC 285 also featured an exciting co-main event between female flyweights Katlyn Chookagian and Antonina Shevchenko. Chookagian was coming off a loss to Valentina Shevchenko, Antonina's sister, while Antonina had won her last two fights. This bout was significant as it could potentially lead to a match between Chookagian and Valentina Shevchenko for the flyweight championship. UFC 285 also had a heavyweight bout between Blagoy Ivanov and Augusto Sakai, a female strawweight bout between Mackenzie Dern and Hannah Cifers, and a bantamweight bout between Eddie Wineland and Sean O'Malley. With these exciting matches and talented fighters, UFC 285 promised to be a memorable event for MMA fans.

The ultimate strength and conditioning book for ultimate fighters. Mixed martial arts (MMA) is America's fastest-growing combat sport, with millions signing up for MMA classes and many more tuning in to "pay-per-view" to watch events with names like "Cage Rage" and "No Limit." MMA is not for wimps, and participants take a real pounding-they must be ready for anything. However, there is one way to predict a winner in any bout: conditioning. When facing an opponent with equal technical skill, the better-conditioned athlete will win-every match, every round, every time. Now, with amateur fight leagues springing up across the country, top conditioning coach Jason Ferruggia reveals the ultimate conditioning program for the ultimate fighter. By gaining overall strength, stamina, speed, and flexibility, athletes can substantially reduce their risk of injury in this intense contact sport. The key to Ferruggia's system is his emphasis on matspecific conditioning techniques. Too many would-be fighters use training programs borrowed from football or bodybuilding-methods that are all wrong for MMA. Included are: - A first-rate warm-up guaranteed to make a fighter more explosive and to reduce injuries - Off-the-charts strength-building secrets - Dozens of exercises to develop crushing grip strength - Top speed-building methods, including Olympic lifts, plyometrics, and throws - Incredibly effective exercises for building a thick, powerful neck that could be the difference between victory and serious injury Each exercise is accompanied by black-and-white photos illustrating proper technique and form, and "Inside the Cage" tips share the secrets to success from top professional fighters.

UFC 286 was a mixed martial arts event that took place on December 10, 2016, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The main event of the night was a title fight between Demetrious Johnson and Tim Elliott for the UFC Flyweight Championship. Johnson was the reigning champion and was considered one of the best fighters in the world at the time. Elliott, on the other hand, was a former competitor in The Ultimate Fighter reality television series and was seen as a significant underdog. The co-main event of the night was a highly anticipated rematch between The Ultimate Fighter winner, Joseph Benavidez, and Henry Cejudo. The two fighters had previously faced off in December 2015, with Benavidez coming out on top. In the lead-up to the rematch, there was a lot of hype surrounding Cejudo, who had been training with legendary boxing coach Freddie Roach. However, Benavidez was determined to prove that he was still the superior fighter and was looking to secure another victory over his rival.
