An Interview With Alwyn Cosgrove

I recently had the opportunity to interview international fitness expert Alwyn Cosgrove and get his thoughts on training for martial artists.

You can check out the interview right here, on MartialArtsPlanet.com.

What did we talk about? We discussed the status of the Lift Strong project, as well as Cosgrove's new book The Secrets of Martial Arts Conditioning.

We got his opinion of the classic, old-school tradition of boxers jogging for miles and miles... "For fighters, there’s not much benefit other than burning a few calories."

And his take on effective stretching... "The hip is the center of the muscular system – start there."

Whether you're into martial arts or not, Alwyn dished out a bunch of useful tips. Give it a read and let me know what you thought.
