One thing I learned about and from khabib that I'm surprised more people don't know or talk about, is he is a frequent nap taker. He probably takes upwards of three naps a day on top of the whole night's sleep. He talks about when sleeping is truly the only time your body recovers, and he was doing three days for 6 days a week
You can bet he does along with fighters, wrestlers and weightlifters with national teams that get paid to do that or in his case when their is a professional sport in which to be paid. They all take lots of naps, train two to three times or more daily. Our people had better be independently wealthy or they are going to be like some of our athletes, working full time jobs, often manual labor, not being able to train for peak performance, working instead of recovering. And may even be on food stamps just trying to squeak by.
You also missed out he prays 5 times a day, his heart and soul is connected to a higher power which humble him and gives him a lot of mental strength and clarity. Khabib took many naps which aided recovery, didn't drink, smoke, chase women, go to clubs, gamble, or be involved in any other vices. He is truly an inspiration to the world. Alhamdulilah!
Not only Khabib...any fighter who is religious regardless of his religion is a dangerous man.... whether Muslim, Christian,Hindu, Buddhist,jew etc.....

@@Nikola-zb6rsI’m not totally sure…I interpreted it being a circuit so do those couple of movements over and over until you hit the ten minute mark. I think I did all the circuit movements 2 times through plus a few more reps into a third round.
One thing khabib is heavy on is leg endurance for grappling. Daru delivered as always, put together well off of bits and pieces of research. Hard work goes into delivering these free videos. Thank you man!
Great stuff mate! I’m just about 40 years old, been training and competing in martial arts for 20 years. I follow and train a tonne of your S&C workouts and I am still able to mix it up with the young bucks on the mats daily!
Ok! This was the Friday morning workout! Loved it! Starts off with “hey this isn’t so bad” ends with “oh man, more sets?!!!” Subbed out the barbell and trap bar with 150lb sandbag and was very cool. Thanks again for sharing this!
Coach on behalf of your audience I recommand please put entire workout on paper at the end of video with sets reps and rest time would be of great help❤
Hermano muchas gracias! Estuve fuera del octagono 2 años y ahora voy con el objetivo de regresar mejor preparado y esto me sirve mucho! Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
Great video as always. You stand out for me on this platform with the amount of combat related S&C advice you give us for free and I thank you for helping me train more efficiently for what I want to do. Do you have any videos or advice that focus on how to train to stop lactic acid build up when striking? I feel my shoulders always tire before I gas, which is frustrating when on the pads, and my technique gets sloppy because of this. Thanks again, and I appreciate all the hard you put into these videos
thanks coach, this was super insightful. I've been doing some variations of these but you introduced a few new alternative ways that i'm excited to try out to build some speed.
It's funny as a dude who hasn't fought pro for 10 years I always thought the consensus these days was we old dudes trained too often and sparred too much.... Here one of the most well regarded minds in the game conditioning wise is recommending 2 a day 6 days a week. Really interesting. 🤔
What are your thoughts on the large amount of non sport specific conditioning work like hill sprints and swimming? Reasons for this vs a pads session etc
Depends on the drills and also the experience of the fighter. Recoverability factors and how much your pushing in the weight room. This is what khabib did, most of my fighters did s&c at night
[ 17min mark ] Lactic capacity training Plates around the world 10 each side Walkingplatelunge with twist 8 each side Kettlebell farmers carry 20 meter 400 meter sprint. The end.
☝️👍💪🔥Radu, you are the best! Can you please tell me what kind of sports nutrition and vitamins are needed to restore the body after such a workout? Because I always get overtrained after such workouts and take a long time to recover.
I saw some people saying that Khabib doesn't lift weights or barely lifts, the problem is that Khabib does it 3 times a week, this is his criteria to say that he doesn't do much, look in the article "Khabib Nurmagomedov doesn't like lifting weights, he reveals your 1-rep max" and see for yourself @PhilDaruStrong question for you, why 50min of S&C and not 60min? Do you think it's worth adding another 10 minutes of other exercises or would it be too overloaded? In those 10 more minutes that I said, what do you think about adding "Kettlebell Lateral Cossack Squat" and "Copenhagen Plank Long Lever"? Do you think it’s exaggerated or worth it? obs: I'm from Brazil, so sorry if I translated or understood something wrong
Best way to start is go towards a lesser drop.. you can start with Aisics or brooks then move towards zero drop like Vivo but I would not run high volume with them on hard surfaces
*I might be incorrect* but you can look at rope slam variations if you have access. if you dont, maybe kettlebell swings. I'd stay away from DB or barbell as the purpose is it gets harder the more you push the weight out. KB doesnt replicate perfectly but the imbalance of it is still better than the stable DB. again, I could be way off but that's what I would do.
wouldn’t it be smarter to do the sport you’re training first, so grappling/sparring mma training in general in the morning and then the accesory stuff like lifting of conditioning? Because after a good s&c session, you shouldnt be able to perform your techniques at the level you could if you were fresh right?
Remember this is what I gathered from his schedule. As far as scheduling goes if an athlete is highly skilled and has good technique with experience with the limiting factor being strength or power endurance etc. then you put it first in the day. On the flip side to that if your in camp and you need to work your game plan than yes skills training would go first. This also depends on their ability to recover between sessions.
Loads off different style of jabs they’re normally associated with country’s (Mexican , Russian , European ,cuban etc ) I’d study boxers tbh.Boxing was was the best thing I did for my overall mma game
With all due respect nobody is doing his routine. Training at his altitude, sparring with the level of fighters he is, wrestling the amount of hours he does. Etc
Ah I thought this was his actuall training plan, not just a made up one with his name on it lol it would be interesting to see this video but really their routine.
Well then I’ll simply throw up my training plans that I’ve worked on my actual athletes such as… Dustin Poirier Junior Dos Santos Edson Barbosa Frankie Edgar Kevin Lee Amanda Nunes Joanna Jedrzejczyk Not in that particular order but I’ll make those happen.
@@PhilDaruStrong that would be awesome! Please do that lol I think a world class coach like yourself showing what your athletes actually did rather than speculating on what others did would be really interesting
My comment wasn’t intended to complain at the content, just the title being a little misleading. The video is still awesome and seems like a free seminar. Apologies, oh great and powerful Daru 🙏
Phil, you should have done their Zikr-Sufi-Dance...trains conditioning and floor-kicking abilities! 😆🤣 (despite that fighting for money is haram for thee "brothers")
