Want to find out how UFC champion George St. Pierre's gets in shape?  Let's ask his conditioning coach, Jon Chaimberg.  Find out about the training program that's helped GSP stay at the top of his game and retain his UFC belt.  Jon has worked with many top Mixed Martial Arts fighters, including Georges St-Pierre, Denis Kang, Rashad Evans, Nate Marquardt, David Loiseau, Keith Jardine and many others. This is a very detailed and specific discussion about MMA conditioning.  Jon pulls no punches and shares much of his approach for working with fighters.  We discuss periodization, crossfit, aerobic vs. anaerobic work, program design, overtraining, initial assessment of an athlete, and a whole lot more.
