If you really want to build the body of an MMA competitor, one of the most important things you can do is to stay consistent with your workouts. (Conor McGregor didn’t get ripped in a day, after all.)

If you follow our Workout Program to Get a Fighter’s Physique and do these routines at least three times a week, you’ll consistently train your muscles for significant growth. Pair that with a smart approach to nutrition like counting macros, and you’ll be on your way to a lean, strong body fast.

Directions

Perform the exercises in order. Exercises labeled A and B are supersets.
