MMA is the fastest growing sport in the world. CardioFight is MMA fitness. A combination of Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. Now you can “get on the ground and sweat” with CardioFight. This new high intensity cardio workout is based off of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu movements and guarantees results. If you are ready to try something different, come and experience a class or attend a certification course.

Come and experience CardioFight at  Anta's Fitness and Self Defense, 10721 NW 58 St., Miami, FL 33178 October 11, 2009  and learn to strengthen your core while increasing anaerobic and aerobic pathways. This certification course is the first of its kind in the Florida area and attendance will be limited. Anyone interested in teaching, learning, or experiencing the next fitness crave the industry has to offer, come and participate.

CardioFight was born in Rio de Janeiro and founded by Wally Holem, a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, under Carlson Gracie. While training in Brazil, Wally learned and honed skills that are the essentials of the program.

The fitness industry is now raving about the results people are getting while getting fit with CardioFight.

Getting on the ground and sweating with CardioFight means getting the most out of your workout and having fun learning something new at the same time. It’s about strengthening your arms, legs, abs and importantly your core. One L.A. Trainer says “your workout is all that we have been talking about”. This is truly a workout that you’ll remember and keeps you coming back for more.

ODD Objects for Functional Fitness Training

Training with odd objects is growing and the preferred training method of professional athletes, combat sport athletes and

Hollywood

stars. I’ve been working out with odds objects for over 5 years when I became a certified kettlebell instructor. Yet, within the last few years with the release of the last “Rocky” movie “Rocky Balboa” and the training of the actors in “The 300” movie odd object training has been growing. In this month’s “Muscle & Fitness” magazine there’s an article on odd objects, ropes and chains by trainer to the stars Gunner Peterson. In the July/August issue of “Muscle & Fitness Hers” the cover story by Gunner Peterson is of Kim Kardashian training with odd objects. Gunner trains her using kettlebells, sleds, ropes and chains.

 

So, what is an odd object and why would you want to train with objects? First let me start with examples of odd objects. Kettlebells, Battling Ropes, chains, slosh pipes, sandbags, sleds, sledgehammers and tires are considered odd objects. Now let me give you a definition I found in the internet. An odd object is a non-rigid implement whose center of mass is not fixed and is ever changing. It acts non-linear in a system and creates tension that does not act opposite or parallel to an anatomical movement pattern (horizontal push/pull, vertical push/pull, rotational, hip dominant), but rather chaotically in opposition to any fixed movement.

 

Odd object and the conventional weight training you do on a machine in a gym or even with a barbell and dumbbell affect your muscles in a different manner. A machine usually works a muscle direct. Odd objects work multiple muscles aerobically and anaerobic. Let’s take a machine bench press as an example. When you push on the bench press machine the movement pattern is fixed so there is no need to balance the movement. When you lift an odd object it is harder to lift than a convention weights because it causes shifts and adjustments making you use your core and a need to balance the object.

 

Odd object training is how you move in life and in athletics. It will help you lose fat and get in great shape. You can work your muscles, cardio and flexibility all in one workout in a short amount of time with odd objects. No wonder UFC fighters, athletes and the Hollywood elite train with odd objects when they need to get in great shape fast. Yet, this workout is not just for the elite athlete but also for anyone wanting to get in shape fast.
