Combat Conditioning Teddy Gambordella copyright 2009 Teddy Gambordella
Introduction I wrote this book to give aspiring wrestlers, martial artists, MMA fighters, jiu jitsu students and anyone else who wants to get in the best shape of their lives. Only the best of the best are ready to win the fight. They are Combat Conditioned. Ready to fight and win, anywhere, anytime. If you will do the exercises in this program you will get incredibly fit and powerful. Your take downs will be unstoppable and your cardio will allow you to go “full steam” the entire fight or match. In my 15 years of competitive wrestling and MMA, I have always found that the best trained, best conditioned athletes always out performed, out worked, and out classed their opponents. When the other guy got tired, I got going. When the other guy wanted to quit, I was just getting started. When the other guy didn’t know what to do, I was prepared and ready to take over the match and Win! You need to be diligent in your training and determined to succeed. Only the best of the best work hard enough, and train hard enough to be Champions. They always are in Combat Condition and prepared to win any fight, under any circumstances. Train with a Champion, and you will be a Champion!
