Go get a sandwhich and fries or something...

MMA training is like no other sport. What I like about it?

Its big on fitness. Most people who think they are in pretty good shape who get into MMA find out they need a little more conditioning. You have to have good speed, strength, endurance, timing and coordination.

Its decent empty hand self-defense. It proves itself again and again against other styles and is incorporated into the military, police and other defense organizations.

It takes a certain kind of person to do MMA; an self-honest, hardworking, courageous type of person. You can't fake victories or progress; you can't improve without putting in the work.

MMA is the rebirth of an ancient sport practiced in Greece called pankration. I guess its in the blood of Western Civilization.
