A Simple Scheme for Martial Artists

http://www.thespotter.net/jsp/viewArticle.jsp?id=121
The following is taken from an interview with Joe Dowdell (the owner/operator of Peak Performance in NYC). I find that too often guys focus on a single aspect of training. Dowdell simply says that a properly planned program should include the following:

1) Dynamic Warm Up
2) Activation Drills
3) Strength Training
4) Energy System Training
5) Regeneration
6) Nutritional Guidance & Supplementation


To that, I would add Flexibility Training for any striker or grappler. Also, "activation drills" are more commonly referenced under the rubric "neuromuscular activation."

Food for thought.
