MMA Program
A Real MMA program run by professional MMA fighters. No prior experience is required; we will teach you MMA-specific techniques that incorporate aspects of wrestling, boxing, Muay Thai, Karate, and jiu-jitsu.
Max Metzgar created his program out of a need for a legitimate MMA program in Columbus. “There’s just not a place that feels like they’re doing it the right way, not like the guys in Vegas or Dagestan.”
This is not a class that you go to; this is a team that you are a part of. As with any team, accountability, structure, and systemization are essential and fundamental. We take pride in knowing that we are the most professionally run MMA program in Columbus.
Your membership gives you access to our team’s practices, as well as your personalized, periodized strength and conditioning routine. We practice 12 times per month in the morning. Our training sessions are 90 minutes long and are broken down into grappling days, striking days, and sparring days.
Learn more about our offer & program
We teach MMA-specific tactics & techniques. We have done the hard work of “absorbing what is useful, discarding what is not” from martial arts like BJJ, Muay Thai, Karate, Wrestling, etc. so that you do not have to.
Our strength and conditioning program is top of the line, with an emphasis on plyometrics, rotation, balance training, proper periodization, and load management. We know how to bring out the best in you both in and out of camp.
We use apps on your smartphone to make your workouts easy to access, complete, and track.
Our licensed nutrition coaches will create a personalized plan tailored to your goals and dietary preferences. Whether you're looking to bulk or cut, we've got you covered.
We use apps on your smartphone that make it easy to log your food and track your macros.
Weight cutting is a huge part of MMA and doing them correctly, and rehydrating/refueling properly before competition is essential.
