The fact that these videos are free is absolutely amazing. Thank you for taking the time to produce these Phil! I have never seen so much great content on one channel.
Hi Phil, I started following you for a month now, and I really like how you start your videos by first explaining every details of what your going to do in your videos. Follow by how you make sure your athletes are doing the exercises using proper body mechanics. I don't do mixed martial arts, but I do work with athletes for power, strength and agility and other areas of sports. I'm always learning from different trainers from different sports. Keep up the great work.
Great info. I was always scared of loading rotational exercises because I thought it can lead to back pain but that t-spine exercise doesn't look so threatening. Thanks for sharing.
You are killin’ it with these uploads coach! Knowledge, explanations, demonstrations, video quality, everything is top notch! Question for that t-spine rotation exercise: I noticed that you hold your breath during rotational phase, I’ve always thought that you should exhale when rotating. Could you please explain that cause I suppose it is better that way since you are the boss and know what you are doing all the time? Greetings from Bosnia!
Em Sparrow thank you for that I’m breathing and bracing in before I rotate then blowing the air back out when I go back to neutral. I appreciate the support brother
Big fan, your shit gets me hype and motivated. I’m Leading a kettle bell workout 3 times a week for some colleagues, I study a lot of your stuff to incorporate in my routines. Thank you!
Do you have any programs for ATT affiliated gyms? I am trying to build myself and my bjj team's strength and conditioning program. Our comp team is just now really getting together. We are under Wade Rome and Kamrin Naville.
Phil Daru thanks for the video and i want to ask you about the longevity of this takedown defense exercises i mean for how long do i have to go on with this TDprogramm and should i dedicate one training day for it or its possible to combine it ?
Morning coach(from India), just want to know your views on bodyweight training for mma, exceptionally I include deadlift or now my favorite zercher squats... I asked this question after watching conor McGregor' knockout power while he mostly does only calisthenic stuff... Pls guide..
Amit Bhardwaj Conor has KO Power only through leverage and his precision his ability to produce is there but it comes from the leverage he has on his punches through limb length and where he places his shots. I do like bodyweight exercises of course but to increase maximal force production you have to load the body with external means.
Whish I would of seen this before my last fight. The guy I fought was supposed to be the best wrestler in MMA. Tyrell Fortune was his name I hope I get a nother go at him...
Been digging and following your programming. It’s on point and I like how you describe the why for some much that you program. I see you really like zercher squats, what about the zercher is more beneficial than front squats for combat sports?
Hey man, appreciate your work. Do you think there should be any minimal requirements for weightlifting for fighters? For example, how much one should squat or bench press? For instance, 80kg fighter should squat 2 of his body weight or its unnecessary?
This dude knOws his shit.. to bad it wasn’t enough for DP in dealing with khabib’s masterful & methodical grappling and chain wrestling.. he’ll learn and come back stronger.
Hey bro I love everything u do but some of the words u use to describe parts of the body. some of us didn't go to Harvard college keep us dum ass in mind.. I got ur hafe hitters I wish I new wen I was a fighter. Now just try to b in shape to coach...thanks
Just_your_average_hand my IG got shut down temporarily by the UFC due to copyrights of a video from 2017 of one of my fighters winning a fight so since they found out it was me they will be putting it back on soon. It’s @darustrong
