ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Juuso Vuorela

Strength & Conditioning Coach
Based in Tampere, Finland
BSc Sports Studies (in progress)
Kyokushin karateka & kickboxer
Martial arts practitioner for over 10 years. Former bodybuilder, ice hockey goalkeeper and eternal hater of kettlebells and HIIT (they work tho).
Helping combat athletes become stronger, faster and more resilient.
"I created these programs because many combat athletes either follow generic bodybuilding routines or random workouts found online that don't reflect the physical demands of their sport.
My goal was to develop structured, evidence-informed strength and conditioning programs that bridge the gap between scientific research and practical coaching.
Each program is built around the specific demands of its combat sport and is designed to complement technical training rather than replace it."

Common questions

Are these beginner friendly?

Yes. The programs are suitable for beginners, intermediate athletes, and experienced practitioners. Beginners should focus on learning proper exercise technique before increasing training loads, while more experienced athletes can use the progression guidelines to continue developing strength, power, and conditioning.


Can I combine this with regular martial arts practice?

Absolutely. These programs are specifically designed to complement your martial arts training—not replace it. They are structured to improve the physical qualities that support performance while allowing you to continue developing technical and tactical skills in your chosen combat sport.


Do I need a commercial gym?

Most programs are designed to be performed in a well-equipped gym with access to barbells, dumbbells, pull-up bars, medicine balls, and other standard strength training equipment. However, each manual includes alternative exercise options to help you adapt the program if certain equipment is unavailable.


Are these printable?

Yes. All programs are delivered as high-quality PDF files that can be viewed on a computer, tablet, or smartphone, or printed for use during training sessions.
