Get Coached by me: http://coachsaman.com/ Power development Program: https://coachsaman.com/product/boxingprogram1/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/powertrainingcoach/ Alexander Volkanovski is in my opinion a physical freak. After seeing some of his fights in the UFC, it made my jaw drop as a strength and conditioning coach. has freakish physical capacity that he can maintain for all of those rounds against names such as Max Holloway and Islam Makhachev. All of this got me excited to analyze his background and his strength and conditioning routine. Turns out he’s a former rugby player (some of the most athletic competitors on the planet). In this video, I have gathered all the footage I could find on his strength and conditioning routine and I will give some explanations and guidelines based on those.

    @guitar0wnz10 months ago Thank you for including the physics of power. I'm a physicist but it never occurred to me to think of humans exercises as power outputs because I usually only ever see it in the context of batteries, cars, horses, or skiing accidents. ... 50

    @MUST-TRT9 months ago Accurate. Competent. Nothing added or taken away. Yet more to Volk's overall conditioning than what is shown - as stated at conclusion.

    @grzegorzszopinski711111 months ago Great video, once again :). The part about the trap-bar especially resonates with me - when I was doing "regular" deadlift and I made a mistake (due to lack of concentration, sleepiness, over estimating my strength, etc.) my kickboxing work in next few days suffered tremendously. Switching to trap-bar really helped me to balance things out. Curiously, many commercial gyms I've visited, even really large ones, had only up to 1-2 trap-bars, which is usually far from enough, and waiting for your turn can get quite annoying. ... 28

    @gustavojuarez28626 months ago Thanks for the video! I’m starting my mma journey and don’t really have $ for personal training to get an in-depth routine. I will be taking kick boxing + jiu jitsu classes and strength training 2-3 times a week. As i get better I plan on adding some high intensity workouts inspired by this (: ... 5

    @PowerTraining10 months ago Regarding the comments of Volk wearing a mask in the video: I want to clarify that several of those clips are from the pandemic period where he was likely required by law to wear a mask. This means it wasn't a deliberate or sports-specific choice. ... 19

    @russ_fx10 months ago These videos are so cool - love this channel, but probably only to practitioners haha. Love the technical side of sport and analyzing workout data to track measureable improvements. Like that jump mat, its a pretty cool piece of gear, definitely not a necessity, but still cool haha. Keep up the videos man, they are great. ... 13

    @DanMehmet-yy1ly9 months ago Nice video no BS. Note at the end most fighters end up doing hours of steady state anyway, by drilling. 2
  • @
    @eddiehauser66616 months ago Great video, this type of training is great for just about any athlete, and is also the type of work that I most often see people missing in their workouts. I tend to see people doing pure strength work with max weight and low reps, hypertrophy work, or endurance work with low weight high reps, but they leave out this "speed-power" training. Also in terms of movements the two biggest things I see left out is rotational movements and hip specific movements, both covered in this video ... 1

    @massyz29688 months ago GREAT TRAINING BUT LONG CARDIO STEADY SESSIONS (40 MINUTES OR MORE) ARE ALSO NEEDED FOR THE HEART TO BE STRETCHED AND TO BE ABLE TO GO THROUGH 5 ROUNDS WITH MINIMUM FATIGUE! ANOTHER REASON IS THE LONGEVITY OF THE ATHLETE ... ... 2

    @Costello649 months ago Wow I've been studying this for some time as a science
    All apes like gorillas and chimpanzees have 70% fiber type 2 muscle and 30% type 1 we have the opposite. Type 2 muscle is our muscle, a bodybuilder muscle the one we use most because we move a lot more than primates do. But the fiber twitch 2 is the one that gives you explosive strength like a gorilla. You can change your muscle type accordingly to the exercise you do.
    This guy is training for gorilla strength

    @CousinJesse17 months ago Us Australians still prefer to train in the old school methods. I mean, we hardly have a choice since we cannot afford world class facilities or specialists like athletes in USA, China, Saudi Arabia, and so on can. But also because we have a “if it isn’t broke, it there is no need to fix it” attitude to training. There is no need to play god and try to reinvent the wheel when it comes to exercise when basic weightlifting, running, swimming, and stretching cover pretty much all of the bases. That’s all it is. Do the basics but do them well. That’s all it takes. ...
