  So you've seen the big shots in the UFC on TV or even live, battling it out in the octagon and you think to yourself "Yeah, I could do that" but then you look down at yourself and have second thoughts. No worries, you don't have to start out a pro athlete to get an MMA body, all it takes is hard work, dedication and a solid plan. Conditioning yourself for MMA is simple, but it can be hard work, especially without knowing how to take the first step. Well, step right up and let's get started on how to give yourself an MMA workout.
  
  One of the first things you need to realize is that you don't need to blow hundreds or even thousands of dollars on home weight equipment or make daily treks to the gym. In fact, most MMA training exercises can be done with little or no equipment at all, some full routines taking less than half an hour. No more excuses about not having time to fit a workout into your daily schedule. The workouts themselves aren't much different from a regular workout, just in shorter, more intense bursts to maximize effect. Usually comprised sets of reps of push ups, crunches, squats and other common exercises, the end goal is not only to be able to exert a great a mount of energy, but also to be able to keep up that energy for an extended period of time as though in an MMA match. Benching 200 lbs isn't very impressive if you can't keep that level of energy up long enough to win.
  
  Nutrition is another core aspect of the MMA workout. If you're working hard to build muscle and then going out for lunch at the local fast food place then you may as well have not done your workout to begin with. Try to cut non-essentials like fats and sugars from soda or junk food and instead focus on nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables and protein rich lean meats and nuts. Try taking a day out of the week to roast an entire chicken or cook a stew and divide that up over several meals in the week to reduce daily prep time. Don't forget to load up on foods rich in vitamins and minerals or at least make sure you're taking the correct supplements. In addition, try to eat several small meals over the course of the day instead of 2-3 larger meals to help combat energy loss from your workouts.
  
  Once you've settled on a nutrition plan and workout, the MOST important thing to do is to stick with it. The difficulty of keeping up with such an intense workout is the most common cause of a failed workout regimen. If the same routines are becoming boring or are too straining to continue with, just switch up your training or meal plans to adapt to what works for you. Consistency in both your workout habits and your diet combined will have you admiring yourself in the mirror in no time.
