Marc Lebert's MMA Strength Training Exercise #1

[JustToletUknow]

seems like a cool exercise i m definetily gonna try it do you know all the muscles it works out and secondly i had an injur so stopped doing n e thing and my hand speed in boxing completely dispersed no muscle do you think this exercise might help it back up i know it will work wonders for wrestling tho

[mlebert]

@JustToletUknow Hey thanks for the comment. I don;t know your injury nor could I diagnose or offer any recommendations. Ask your doctor. All I know is that if you are healthy and doign this it will build strength for both boxing and wrestling for sure. Hand speed is a different story but strength and core this one will help!

[rlam86]

monkey magic lol. becareful not to hit yourself on it

[mlebert]

@SwedenSkinhead glad you like it! Let me know how it goes!

[ManBearxPig]

ur fucking big

[mlebert]

@ManBearxPig HA! thanks i think...

[KostaMegas]

Nice, somewhat like sledge hammer training just less explosive.

Where you pound a sledge hammer on an old tire.

Definitely effective!

[mlebert]

@KostaMegas ya that's right. Love the hammer too- just a different mode - both are cool!

[brawl123]

awesome man! Ive never seen or heard of this exercise.

[mlebert]

@brawl123 glad you like!

[AGKRWKSCK]

[HatebreederGaby]

Wow this is actually pretty cool, works like a charm.

[mlebert]

@HatebreederGaby cool glad you like!

[nush0bha]

[mlebert]

@nush0bha Thanks!

[TheChristianCorpse]

Really cool man. I have an olympic size bar, so it would be tough, but I'll find something around the house that's similar. Thanks again, that's sick

[0713mas]

Never saw this before!!

I train MMA and we do a similar thing with a heavy bag on your fore arms (like a wrestling pummel rotations). Except your exercise seems like it would include the wrist & hand strength too. Great exercise, Thanks!

[MS8168]

[marcoski711]

good. who cares if it's simple or old for goju ryu. it's a new idea for my limited experience. I like it.

[cristianlanda]

Goju Ryu fighters have been doing that for hundreds of years.

[mlebert]

Good to know!

[skatersmith08]

[bellys]

well goju ryu is less then 200 years old so i dont think so

[MikeyyMMA]

[tapoutod37]

[mlebert]

i'm not sure what type of barbells you have but they have to be on there really good!

[mlebert]

thanks! waltched some ufc last night and feel like training today!

[andytdport4]

that's a sweet workout! i agree that wrist curls are boring so this is money in the bank

[dalmatinka1001]

Awesome!!

[mlebert]

@dalmatinka1001 THANKS!

[nilssonnick]

great exercise! I've done a variation of that that was targeted for core but I like the idea of using it for forearms as well. Always interesting to try and talk while doing a tough core exercise...
