“To build mental toughness, you have to inconvenience yourself. The early morning runs if you hate late night runs, the late night runs if you hate early morning runs, the snowy, cold, the worst conditions you can get, put yourself in those conditions and really make it inconvenient, and you start to get a genuine expectation of winning for the price you had to pay.”

How bad do you want it? 

Are you willing to seek out the best trainers? To work hard? Are you willing to endure the pain success requires? Are you willing to drag yourself up from the bottom to the top and do whatever it takes?

The Diet of UFC Champion Georges St-Pierre

GSP considers nutrition a critical part of his fight prep, just as important as being in the cage. In this respect, 2009 marked an inflection point. That year, after successfully defending his Welterweight title in his second fight against BJ Penn, GSP hired Dr. John Berardi of Precision Nutrition to help him gain lean muscle tissue and improve his recovery abilities. Berardi, in charge of the nutrient science, recommended that GSP hire Jennifer Nickel and Rosario “Ross” Gurreri, two chefs in the Montreal area who worked at Cavalli and Bice restaurants, for his meal preparation.

In the next 8 weeks, GSP gained approximately 12 pounds of lean muscle and bulked up to 195 pounds. His upgraded speed and power helped him to dominate every subsequent opponent, posting a 5-0 record since 2009.

This post will walk you through how GSP ate during his 2009 transformation…

“There is a difference between a fighter and a Martial Artist. A fighter merely trains for a fight. I’m a Martial Artist. I don’t train for a fight. I train for myself.” - Georges St Pierre

Bas Rutten’s Liver Shot | MMA Training

 

How to Pull It Off:
1. Establish your stance.
2. Step forward with left foot.
3. Turn shoulders left, so your right shoulder is above your left knee.
4. Throw a left hook. Aim at a 45-degree angle and hit mid center of opponent’s abdomen, on the right side.
5. Keep your right hand by your face to block.

Bang, that’s Bas Rutten’s infamous liver shot. In case you didn’t know, the liver’s on the right side of the abdomen. One hard strike’ll cause extreme pain all through the body, so do it right and you’ll walk away the winner.

“Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely — lay your life before him.”
— Bruce Lee

“Don’t get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” - Bruce Lee
