Here’s Coach Vince Salvador (@vinceeversince) with a Tip of the Week on using the heavy bag to reinforce getting offline after you throw punches. Not all reps are built the same, reinforce effective movements with perfect practice. #THEARENAMMA #COACHVINCEEVERSINCE #KICKBOXING #MOVEYOURFEET #DANCE #WEBUILDFIGHTERS
There is a level of precision that can be obtained through rigorous repetition and analysis of movement. Just because we do the same thing does not mean we are the same. #THEARENA #PRECISION #ZACHTENORIO #CONSTANTREFINEMENT

Never forgotten, 9/11/01. Civilian, Law Enforcement, and first responders lost their lives. That day we were all one, all our differences went away, and we mourned together. We will never forget.
Success is not about a fleeting moment of accomplishment, it’s about the repetitive action of striving to better yourself while others stay complacent. Stay on the path and eventually your hard work will surpass those not willing to keep up. #THEARENA

Defense wins fights. Although offense gets all the glory, often good defense creates the openings for the offense. No cardio boxing classes! #THEARENA #BOXING #COACHJOEVARGAS #WEBUILDFIGHTERS #SWEETSCIENCE #SLIPANDRIP

Wrestling is hard. Every day. There is no better base for MMA then wrestling. If you want to win the fight standing, you better be able to wrestle. If you want to win the fight on the ground, you better be able to wrestle. Hard Work Every Day!

Here's some technical drilling with MMA fighter Liz Carmouche before her last fight. There are many stages of learning technique, none can be skipped. Professional fighters still shadowbox and work their Jab, professional basketball players still take free throws, professional baseball players still take ground balls. Don't cheat the process, learn right, you will fall to the level of your training under pressure. #THEARENA #WEBUILDFIGHTERS #KICKBOXING #MMA #DRILLERSAREKILLERS #TRUSTTHEPROCESS
Here's Coach Charles Martinez discussing the effective mindset of learning martial arts techniques.

"Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Often quoted by Bruce Lee about martial arts learning. You must learn, but you must also apply and get uncomfortable. Sparring is a reminder that there are negative consequences to making mistakes here. #THEARENA #MUAYTHAI #SPARRING #FRIDAYDEATHMATCHES #COACHJAMES #SHORTSHORTS

The devil is in the details. There is a huge difference between a pad holder and a coach. Anyone can make you tired or teach you a pattern, but can you replicate it under pressure against a resisting opponent? Everyone knows the same tools and lots of people can teach you “how”, but real coaches can teach you why. This is what we do.
