How well does running fitness translate to other sports?

UFC/Martial Arts

UFC fighter Conor McGregor has been described as the ‘complete package’ by ex-Olympian and Harley Avenue skilled Professor Greg Whyte. Working with Whyte, McGregor was examined for cardiovascular endurance, anaerobic capability, power endurance and most energy, and the outcomes mirrored any elite athlete that Whyte has studied.

Working is a vital component of that coaching for all UFC or MMA fighters. Endurance within the ring is essential and while Whyte goes on to say {that a} marathon runner, “might outrun Conor, they’d have nowhere close to his power”.

UFC fighters must work on all areas of their health and cardiovascular is super-important.
