What is your current training philosophy? How often do you change your training?
Currently I am doing HIT training. I run a program for 4-5 weeks and then I have a week off, where I do high volume work. I will switch up the exercises in the second phase, but the reps and methods will remain the same. In regards to fitness, I do MMA training twice per week, with two sessions at the Gracie Academy for BJJ and 2-3 interval sessions in the gym.
What does your supplementation look like?
Whey Isolate

Glutamine
Multi and Mineral Vitamins

martynfordofficialBursting out my pyjamas! Lol had an awesome few days getting back into training for my trip. Loving training in so many different aspects of fitness at the minute really pushing and stretching my body to the limits! The key to growing is never stop learning, pushing and wanting more, never settle, never take for granted and always remember there is someone who knows more than you. Open yours ears, close your mouth and absorb the knowledge of others like a sponge! #BJJ #Martynford #training
