Training for MMA fight

**Liffguard** · Posted On: 3/02/2007 3:04pm

My sub wrestling/MMA coach has told me he can get me an MMA fight whenever I feel ready provided I give him enough warning. I'm going to ask him on monday and hopefully I'll be able to get a fight for three months time or so. Anyway, if I do I'll need to change my training a bit, mainly cutting back on the weights a bit and put more time into sparring and cardio. This is a provisional plan that I'd like you guys to critique if possible:

Monday:
AM - Weights
PM - sub wrestling/MMA

Tuesday:
AM - Cardio (circuit training)

Wednesday:
AM - Weights
PM - BJJ/MMA

Thursday:
AM - Cardio (circuit training)
PM - Boxing followed by Judo

Friday:
AM - Weights
PM - Boxing

Weekend:
Open mat sparring (? Depends on who's free to do it)
Otherwise - Cardio (circuit training) on either day. Other day free.

Any glaring flaws or obvious areas that need improvement? Thanks.

Yeah you havent promised to record it. Remember video or it didnt happen.

Don't worry, if it happens I'll make sure it gets recorded. It''ll probably be amateur rules though, i.e. no closed-fist strikes to the head. A little lame I know but I'd rather walk before learning to run.
