I was on Arlovski's website and under the training section it lists his routine
http://www.arlovski.tv/start.htm

Anyway is that routine normal for most MMA fighters? He has 3 1/2 hours of boxing a day and 2 hours of Jiu-Jitsu. Doesn't it seem like he has way to much training devoted to boxing? 6 days a week 3 1/2 a day. It seems as if he is training more towards a boxing fight from that routine and from the all access special I saw. I would think MMA fighters would devote more time to actual MMA sparring.


Also I was shocked to know that there was no weight training in there...damn




Anyone who has knowledge on training have thoughts to his training routine?

unique resistance tool called the Clubbell (it resembles a short thick
bat), using it to perform a variety of exercises specific to
strengthening his muscles for fighting. The Clubbell training system was
designed specifically for fighters by USA National Sambo coach Scott
