Sorry if this has already been posted, I used the search function and couldn't find it. This is a short clip about how he prepared for his fight against Tim Sylvia...

Ross Enamait style. It gets more popular every day.

Those guys at IHP seem to have put together an awesome program for him. Wish we had some places like that here in Alabama to train, I'd love to train with experts like that. Yeah, it's alot like Ross' stuff...I wonder if any Pro fighters use his workouts?

The "Tim-Arm" cracks me up.

Are you implying that they copy Ross's ideas? If so you are WAY off.

I think he was saying that that is similar to what Ross' workouts are like. IHP seems to be an extremely legit place, they obviously designed this workout specifically for Jeff and his fight against the gay Sylvia. I'm going to search for a place like that in my state, I'd love to train in a place like that.

No of course not. As bamai said, I just wanted to draw attention to the similarity. Sled dragging, car pushing, etc. Ross promotes the hell out of that type of thing. GPP is the new Roadwork.

FYI, I posted this up on Ross's forum for some of their responses, http://www.rosstraining.com/forum/vi...ccfab93d0b6805 for the link.

Again, I don't purport they copied ross's ideas.

I think the tube with the glove on it was a little silly

I think it's funny how when this was posted in the HW: Pride and UFC forum, 90% of people talked about how Jeff Monson's workout was pointless and it looked like he was getting ready for a strongman competition and that's why he lost and then it's posted here and everybody that knows about conditioning loves it.

I checked out the link to Ross's forum and the thread posted with Monson's workout and I definetely disagree with Ross's responses to the video. I think bringing the bobbing and weaving in before the training to simulate the takedown is great, but Ross was acting like he was wasting his time by bobbing and weaving under the pipe was a waste of time, and to me it seems like it's making the cardio even better simulated to the fight. Also, I think Ross neglected to realize that Monson was training with his Strength and Conditioning coach, not his fight trainers or anything like that. I'd bet big money that he was doing just as much sparring as he was S&C training, they only filmed him training at this one facility, though.
