Mike will now be posting weekly on NorthEastMMA.net.

Check out his first article about how he believes all fighters should be evaluated by their strength coaches.

During the initial evaluation, the trainer/coach should try to gather as much information about the fighter as possible. This SHOULD include:

  • Injury history
  • Medical conditions
  • Medications/supplements
  • Diet
  • Recent fights- information and outcome
  • Recent training camp – how it went in general, what worked/what didn’t work
  • Weight class
  • MMA strengths/weakness
  • Sleep habits
  • Movement baseline (FMS)
  • Strength baseline
