So today I'm going to reveal the top 5 most frequently asked questions about fitness strength training, and answer them by revealing my juicy secrets I acquired from the world's top MMA & boxing athletes on how to get unparalleled strength results. How can I prevent injuries while strength training? One of the most important steps in preventing injuries from fitness strength training is to stretch. A secret I learned from practicing MMA is that you don't have to lift your max weight and keep pushing these limits. If you do this, you're bound to get injured...And unfortunately, it's a common myth in fitness strength training. The right exercises are necessary for effective strength results...And many of these fall under "caveman training" routines that involve only body weight. Research has also shown that stretching between sets has numerous benefits - flexibility, preventing injuries and increase in strength. What is the #1 best fitness strength training exercise? Hindu pushups. Can you bench 400-pounds? Even if you can do this, hindu pushups will be tough for you. For MMA fighter like strength these hindu pushups will do the job. Is it true that I should do 3 sets of 2-5 reps for fitness strength training? No, it's a myth. 2-5 reps is a common misstatement made by many fitness trainers and workout junkies as the holy grail of strength training. Research shows that being consistent and variable leads to max results. Now, if you really want lightening fast crazy results like pro MMA & boxing athletes don't isolate muscles. Multifaceted workouts like deadlifts, squats, and lunges will give you quick strength gains that'll have you drooling for more. How often should I change up my routine?

There's really no such thing as a peak. If there were, you wouldn't see women and men pushing cars and pulling trucks like toys. Most people fitness strength training hit a "peak" as the general public calls it. It's really a plateau. When you stop noticing results you've come to this plateau. The solution? Climb another rock. Change your routine completely. Things you can change are: a) Rest between exercises and sets b) Types of exercises c) Speed of exercises ...And many many more variables. It's important that you track your progress. When you're seeing signs of no growth, change your strength training exercises. My favorite thing to do is switch to 5 tri-sets of 5 reps for 8 weeks.
