    Video

    Description

    I have been visiting Tristar Gym in Montreal every Tuesday indefinitely to be part of Aiemann Zahabi’s fight camp for his UFC fight in May. After my sparring session last Tuesday, I dropped by pro fighter Xavier Alaoui’s gym, 360 Punch, for a strength & conditioning session. I was obviously very tired after my session at Tristar, so forgive me for my lack of technique! Nonetheless, it’s a very effective and tough workout that some of the pros use! Below is the workout breakdown:

    __________________________________________________________________________________________
    Warm up

    Exercise 1: Step in, step out (with resistance bands around ankles and knees)
    Exercise 2: Wide walk (with resistance bands around ankles and knees)
