Yeah maybe I was a bit rash with the testin comment. I fight at semi pro level n I can only speak from personal experience but iv never come across any testin as yet. Perhaps thats just by chance tho.
LL, u know is there an independent governin body responsible for testin in MMA ? Or is it down to the individual promotions company ? Also i might be wrong but u look at some of these guys in the UFC n PRIDE n they look in REALLY good shape.
Not sure i agree about distancin myself from bodybuilders altogether. Granted trainin to fight is very very different but there are some elements that translate. Many top sportsmen incorporate bodybuildin into there trainin nowadays, weather it be thru resistence trainin, nutrition or makin weight lets face it bodybuilders know how to get the best out of there bodies.
