Saturday mornings are busy at Informed Performance. we have all sorts going on at once. Usually on the Prowlers we’ll have one of the GAA clubs doing their conditioning. On the mats we’ll have the MMA guys swinging some kettlebells and doing their thing. We’ll have our strength trainess in the power racks lifting. We’ll … Continue reading
I was going to write up a bit on how to maximise your time in the gym for martial arts, but I think I’ll save it for another day, after we’ve done something that we’ve been thinking about for quite a while. I have put the idea out there to hold a Strength and Conditioning … Continue reading
And surprise surprise, I’m blogging already. I have some results from the IP fighters for anyone that’s interested. Me- Silver. 3 in my division, had a good first match but never got going in the final and despite some good guard work, I spent too long on bottom and eventually got tapped with a darce … Continue reading

I had one of those days today where nothing seemed to go right. I started this morning with my arse dragging along the round into the gym and things didn’t improve as the day went on. I’m tired and off to bed in a moment, but I’ll update the last couple of day’s training first. … Continue reading
Just sharing this with everyone if you haven’t seen it before: http://www.aesopian.com/ A really good website/blog that has just about everything. Most technique sites just have vids but this one has some good articles, tips and hints for beginners to advanced guys.
I was just thinking about injuries. That means you now have to read about injuries. Injuries suck. They keep you out of training, off the mat, away from the gym and almost invariably, on the couch. This is bad for a couple of reasons. Number 1, you don’t get to train, this is filed under … Continue reading
