Add these 2 exercises into your MMA workouts for increased punching power, increased grip strength and shoulder injury prevention.

The "Electron"

This exercise is great because you work the KB through a circular range of motion, which is fantastic for the shoulders and develops hip power and core stability in the rotational (transverse) plane of motion.

Enter 3D training with this exercise! It can be done for reps (10 per), time (60 sec or any other method you want to use.

The "Scarecrow"

This TRX exercise will balance the demands on your body if you train MMA by training your upper back muscles and posture, helping you decrease injuries.

Go for higher reps here, 10-20 is a good number to shoot for, so you can focus on perfect form and develop strength-endurance and maybe even a little upper back muscle mass.

Both exercises are great for training your grip strength as well.

P.S. I did this workout on Canada Day (July 1) hence the patriotic appearance of the Canada flag. :)

  • i HATE deer flies brother

  • Looks like he donated a kidney to get a passport, and then overdid the rehab. Fair exchange I suppose?

  • lol as a fellow Canadian I know all too well the plague of Horse flies and Deer flies when you're at the lake

  • Great video man! Awesome exercises. You should get some neem oil to keep the flies off. You can dilute it with some vege oil and it will be less pungent yet still very effective. I was wearing neem oil 1 time at my friends camp where the mosquito's were ravenous, it was pretty funny watching time and again mosquitos would approach my breathe, but as soon as they were close enough to detect the neem oil, they flew in the other direction frantically.

  • I call the electron "the ribbon". Then again my class is all women. :) I loved the fishing bit. Shows you can train anywhere at anytime, and still enjoy your holiday. I thought you were in Algonquin. Beautiful country wherever you were!

  • Great video Eric. Thanks for sharing.

  • Damn! excited to try though!

  • dude where do you live, looks greats there!

  • @TincAnKallida before insulting someone make sure you spell it right. dumbass

  • nice clip, thx eric
