The training you should do as a professional fighter is everything that has to do with martial arts. All those elements that I talked about, you have to do them. You have to know your ground game, the stand-up game, you have to know how to take somebody down, you have to know how to defend a take-down. All that together you have to train. There's not one thing that you can leave out anymore. On top of that you need to do a lot of conditioning. We here in the gym, we like to run hills. We run hills here. There's a hill very close to my house. We sprint up a hill and then come down and we do focus bits. We do runs for the focus bits. So their minute break is running up a hill and that hill is steep, it's a real steep hill. That gives them a phenomenal conditioning. You need to do power training also because you want to have a little strength. I don't say focus on power training-- do it three times a week. And most of the time the power training that I do is with kettlebells, or the power training that I really use in fighting. Pullups are just to make your back look big; I don't need that so I won't do it. Everything that has to do with martial arts, that kind of power training, I use.
