[BigWayner]

When training for an upcoming fight this is my schedule,
I train 5 days a week muay thai, monday, wednesday, thursday, friday and sat. Those days I train for 3 hours. Usually the classes are split between condition, technique and sparring. On tuesdays and saturday I weight train for about an hour an half. I also run every day 10km in the mornings.
This schedule is for about 2 months prior to my fight, when I don't have a fight coming I usually only train twice a week for 2 hours muay thai and twice a week weight training.

 

[Peekay1982]

I try and run 10km every morning, but in practice it's usually 5 times a week.

I train Muay Thai six days a week for an hour and a half or so - shadow boxing, bag work, pads, and sporadic sparring.

I do weights erratically.

My amateur record is mediocre. I wonder why?

Sometimes fighters will miss that IT factor, that they will later find in there careers.

Maybe you will find that one technique that you will love and will rely on someday, you probably just havent found it yet

Me too! But job, wife and kids makes that impossible. I have a tough time getting 2 hours a day to myself.

[_kickboxer_]

I like to do the conditioning, running or weight training in the morning. I got used to it so much that I can't even function through the rest of the day without it. I feel great when I train before sunrise just feels much better.

I train bjj 3x a week, wrestling and kickboxing almost daily. weight training about 2-3 times a week. conditioning is done through out the day as I do lots of mobility drills. but sometimes I skip bjj for some swimming, I like to swim a lot. There is no excuse for no time for training you can always workout before sunrise then go to work/college, and train again at night

While I think training before sunrise depends alot more on the hours you work, I actually do agree with your point. I find it's much easier to blame every factor besides myself for my lack of motivation some days. I just need to be consistant if I want to pursue fighting.

This comment might be naive but how do you avoid overtraining? Let me begin by saying I have no fighting experience - I just train a lot of BJJ and muay thai. I'm finding it difficult to incorporate weight training into my schedule.
If you have say weight sessions twice a week and then you train muay thai next day for 1.5hrs (or even that afternoon), how are you giving your body enough time to recover after the weight session? My understanding is that a muscle group should be given around 48hrs to recover post weight workout to allow the DOMS and muscle growth/repair to occur properly.

I wouldn't worry about time tables aka 48 hours for recovery or whatever, but how you're body feels and how you perform.

Eat enough healthy fats proteins and complex carbs and get 8 hours of sleep and you should be good. If you are particularly sore or tired just take the day off.

Btw heavy weight lifting makes you more susceptible to injuries so if you are trying to gain strength of explosiveness you may need an extra rest day from bjj or mt
