To affect muscle versus fat ratios you MUST weight train or work out with resistance, such as your body weight.  Contrary to common belief, bodybuilders don’t spend their entire day lifting in the gym.  Most bodybuilders are aware that after about 45 to 60 minutes, catabolic (muscle wasting) hormones begin to wreak havoc.  An intense weight workout lasting no more than 60 minutes is the most efficient route to go.  You don’t have to workout with a “bodybuilding routine”, but you should work the entire body approximately three alternate days per week.  (BOOTCAMP!!!)

The more lean muscle mass you carry, the higher your metabolic rate is, and this means you burn more calories …even at rest!  It’s like comparing a 4-cylinder car to an 8- or 12-cylinder one.  The more powerful cars guzzle more gas because they need more energy....if you had more muscle, your body would need more energy to sustain itself, therefore more calorie-burning! (Just so you know, pound per pound, muscle burns 4-5 times more calories than fat!)

Also contrary to popular belief, women will NOT get huge if they workout with weights!  That is a common myth, but it’s very unfortunate since it limits many women from achieving that toned look they so desire!  So ladies, start lifting or get on those military-style push ups!

Hey everybody, the Banquet is almost here!  The FFA Annual Awards Banquet is taking place this Sunday at the elegant Signature Gardens in Miami.  Students from both our Miami and Broward MMA gyms are invited!

The deadline to register was yesterday but since we always have some late birds, I had reserved 10 extra seats just in case.  From the extra 10 seats, four have already been claimed… we are left with 6 seats!

If you want to pick up one of the seats, go to www.FFAspace.com and reserve the seats online on the front page.  Once I get the six seats filled, I will take down the online reservation form from the website… so in other words, if you see it there, you can still reserve a seat :)

This is the MOST IMPORTANT EVENT of the year for Freestyle Fighting Academy and Women-Only Fitness Bootcamp… we are inviting everyone from our kids, teens, adult MMA, adult CAP, Bootcamp, and friends and family to attend!  These six seats will vanish fast, so if you want in reserve them!

Take a look at the video above to see last year’s banquet and check out how nice of an event this really is!

Above is a video of Mike Bernhard hitting pads with Seth Petruzelli and Tom Lawlor at our FFA MMA Broward gym!  Both UFC vets came down with TUF vet David Bagget to do some training at our Broward and Miami MMA gyms for a week.

It was great having them over, they are great guys with a strong work ethic and awesome technique.  They also all sparred with Coach Mike Bernhard to help him get ready for his upcoming fight on March 5 versus Ariel Gandulla.  We are confident that Mike Bernhard is going to score a devastating KO on Ariel – we’ll see soon enough!
