best weight training
What do y'all think is the best way to weight train for mixed martial artists? Or do you feel its necessary at all? When i used to lift weights more often I'd notice that it would later make me feel stiff and drained when I do martial arts. Since it so adversely affected my performance, I cut down on the amount of time and intensity I spent on weights. But I also feel that I should keep weight training because not being a big guy, more strength and raw power would be an asset for me, especially in grappling. So i was wondering if anyone had any good ideas on how to best go about weight training and martial arts simultaneously. How should you space out the workouts? How intensely should you lift during a workout? As martial artists, is it better for us to focus on strength or endurance (or a mix of both)? You get the idea...any thoughts?
