Jeff Monson is probably best known for (1) having the physique and build of a professional bodybuilder and (2) his submission game with respect to mixed martial arts. So people might assume that his training is geared primarily toward mass building and sustained strength for forcing his opponents’ limbs in the wrong direction.
However, in the following video, “The Snowman” shares some of the routine he employs to maintain explosive strength and power in the ring and the cage. Given that he is one of the shortest heavyweights in the game, explosiveness will generally be a requirement if he wants to shoot in on his opponents and attempt to negate their always-present reach advantage.
Enjoy, as one of the world’s premier MMA heavyweights lets you into his gym.
