30 day goal- Structure my S&C
I've had a hard time figuring out what is too little, too much and what is the most efficient/effective for MMA and Kickboxing. Happy to learn from the best.

For the next 30 days, cap your total weekly stress first, then plug in 2 to 3 focused strength and conditioning sessions that support rather than compete with your MMA and kickboxing. Treat hard sparring days as your heavy nervous system days and keep max effort lifting and brutal conditioning away from them. Start with two 45 to 60 minute gym sessions of 6 to 8 quality exercises, only adding a third if you are clearly recovering well. Use a simple split with Day 1 as lower body strength and power, Day 2 as upper body strength, power and robustness, and an optional Day 3 for mixed power plus conditioning. Base your main lifts around 3 to 5 sets of 3 to 5 reps with 1 to 2 reps in reserve, always getting your jumps or throws done first while you are fresh, resting 2 to 3 minutes on heavy work and 60 to 90 seconds on accessories. Let your sparring quality, fatigue and soreness be the feedback loop: if your timing, pop or skill sessions drop off, pull back sets or intensity, but if bar speed and loads are progressing while you feel sharper in exchanges, you have probably hit the right balance.
Athlete Growth
One of my MMA athletes I'm currently preparing for the Australian Titles in 7 weeks. Tevita is only 16 years old, but over the last 12 weeks he's made some serious progress. ✅ +57 kg Mid Thigh Pull ✅ +20 kg Back Squat ✅ +20 kg Bench Press ✅ Faster agility ✅ More explosive power ✅ Stronger grip The best part? These improvements transferred straight into competition. After just 3 months of MMA training alongside structured Strength & Conditioning, he won his JMMAC #20 (Junior MMA Competition) division convincingly. This is exactly why I'm big on testing. It gives us a starting point, shows us where the weaknesses are, and lets us measure whether the program is actually working. Over the next 7 weeks, the focus shifts from building physical qualities to sharpening them for competition. The goal isn't just to be stronger, it's to arrive on the mats fast, explosive, durable and confident when it matters most. I can't wait to see how he performs at the Australian Titles. The work is getting done. Now we keep stacking good weeks.

I Create and Innovate.
I remain a student of my craft. I honour the science, respect the art, and never stop evolving. I think differently, refine constantly, and create better solutions for every athlete. Innovation is not a trend; it is my commitment to continual growth.
Reactive Strength Continuum
Here's a good sequence of work to improve reactive strength, plyometric capabilities, and explosive power production.
