The more detail, the better. Any detail about periodization would help greatly, too.
 
I'm not exactly sure, but I train with his Muay Thai coach in NYC. If it's at all similar to how he trains GSP, it's a shitload of cardio, and adaptation skills with Muay Thai. Lots of hand pads and countering work.
 
That was actually a pretty decent article there, for MF...

where do you train? I just started training there too.
 
I don't want to know what his workout is. I already feel inferior and weak enough!
 

I never trust a damn thing in Mens Fitness...

But, this is an interview with a trainer, not an Article written by Mens Fitness on GSP :D Some Highlights


"Let's say he does a set of weighted chins and then goes into a core exercise while he's recovering. Then he'll do a single-leg deadlift. It's four exercises back to back. If he's doing a heavy chinup, he wouldn't be able to do another set of heavy chins right away. So what he would do is work non-competing muscles. He can do a single-leg squat, get a quick drink of water, and then he's ready to pull again."

MF: What kind of cardio do you have him do?

Chaimberg: We're all about anaerobics. So we'll do sprinting, uphill runs, sled work. I don't want to give away all my secrets, but we do intervals. We're working on making him more explosive. Since he's training boxing, muay thai, wrestling, and jiu jitsu, he's getting a lot of muscular endurance work. So you don't want to go to the gym and train that property first. You want to focus more on power, speed, and strength. He's getting that sport-specific work in his normal training.
