MMA Training For Six Pack Abs

A few months ago I was at my local watering hole enjoying my usual wings and beer with my friends when a broadcast of UFC 101 comes on one big screens.  I am captivated by this sport, but not because of the brutality, or the sportsmanship these guys display after beating the piss out of each other, but I’m captivated by the abs these guys have.  Don’t get wrong, I’m not into men, but I am a 43 year old white collar type who is out of shape enough to admire these shredded up warriors.  Many years behind a desk, and skipping workouts to spend time with my kids, has really taken a toll on my once ripped physique.  I still get to the gym, however, the typical weight routine does little for a man of my age who produces a fraction of the testosterone I once produced.  I also tried P90X, which was a great routine for losing weight; however, it became routine and unfulfilling for me after 4 months of doing this in my basement.  So, my hunt began for a local MMA gym to see what I could do to evolve my workout.

There are about three MMA gyms within driving distance from my office and, much to my surprise, two of the three had weight areas and decent locker area.  With little hesitation I joined, and I have been really pleased with the results thus far.  Keep in mind, I’m not about to step into a cage with another mid-life crisis sufferer, but the training is intense and very group oriented.

The Routine:

Monday: Muay Thai Class + Weights

Tuesday: Grappling (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu)

Wednesday: Muay Thai Class + Weigths

Thursday: Grapping (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu)

Friday: Plyometric training

**The Grappling classes start off with a 30 minute military style fitness “warm up”, but I’m almost puking by the end of this routine.

Food Intake:

MMA requires ample food intake, at least equal to 15 to 18 times your body weight daily. For protein I multiply my weight by 1.25 for my daily intake. I also keep a food journal to self-“police” my eating habits.  Unlike true weight loss programs I gain a pound in the first month.  My pants are getting loose so this is definitely a result of muscle mass gain and the fat is melting away.

Nutritional Supplementation:

My instructor laid out a simple plan for my supplements, which I need to get through these grueling 1 -2 hour sessions.

-MMA Supplementation Stack

-Omega 3

-Protein Shakes

-Joint Complex

My results are amazing after the first three months.  I’ve dropped one pant size and my arms are starting to look more muscular – Take that P90X.  I can definitely feel myself getting in better shape as the classes get a little easier.  My six pack is only months away if I can keep up this training tempo.  The instructors, being live instead of a DVD, can switch the classes to push the students beyond normal comfort levels.  I would highly recommend checking out a local MMA gym for anyone looking to get in shape.  Female are more than welcome at the gyms I researched, and they kickboxing if you don’t want to roll around on the mats with a sweaty old guy like me.  Next stop – UFC!!
