“I used your thump chest and found my mind to be pumped up, focused and to tapped into a second wind. I actually hurt my back bad 5hrs before my fight. I got a massage and listened to your hypnosis Cd on injury rapid recovery. I ended up winning my fight in 45 seconds by armbar! Dec 1st I received my bb in bjj. Opening a MMA school and will continue my journey to becoming a champion! Your material is awesome!”

Coach Bill and I have just returned from three back to back coaching gigs at training camps for some awesome fighters.  We made our way to CA to NY and finally TX, and racked up some sweet frequent flyer miles.

Anyway, we’ve had little time to do anything else, and have been lame about posting on this blog.

That’s about to change, starting now.

One thing that I’ve learned from working with over 1,000 fighters from many disciplines (including those in several Halls of Fame), is that almost every fighter deals with some level of fear before some fights.

Sure you can say you are a bad-ass, and never feel any fear, but we just don’t believe you. 

Unless you are totally fuckin’ nuts, some of those guys don’t feel fear, it’s true.

But their fighting careers are usually short lived, because they end up in prison, or dead in some back alley.

Assuming that’s not you, here’s our take on fear…

We have noticed that fighters describe many similar feelings and physical sensations between a state of being “pumped up” or excited, and feeling fear.

This is important to understand, as there often is a fine line between your optimal state and a fear state.

And just like Renegade Johnny Cash…

You want to Walk The Line.

So how do you do that?

We teach our fighters several different techniques to ensure that they are in the peak mental/emotional state going into battle, and that their bodies and minds recognize the strong emotions as positive, and not register them as fear.

One of the most powerful methods is called Anchoring.

This is a way to link up your optimal mental states with unique physical actions.

Sounds wierd, we know.

But with a little practice, you will be able to anchor an action (like tapping your left shoulder, for example), to the state of ultimate confidence.  Then you will be able to activate it at any time and FEEL CONFIDENT.

Are you getting the idea of just how valuable this will be to you as a fighter?

I’ve got a video for you showing you how to do it.

In our next blog post we’ll show you another technique for clearing out ANY negative emotion in minutes.

What the hell is Hypnosis, and how can it help me be a better fighter?

That’s a good question – here’s the answer, and a sample of how
easy it is to use.

If you’ve never been formally hypnotized, then you must experience
hypnosis on purpose so you can really recognize what a trance feels
like. 

Now, don’t get tied up with the word trance.  A trance is simply an
“altered state”. 

What’s an “altered state”?

When I use the word “state”, I am referring to your “emotional
state”.

STATE = EMOTIONAL STATE

So, a trance occurs when you change from whatever emotion you are
currently experiencing to a different emotion.  For example… When
someone tells you a joke to cheer you up, and you laugh; you have
switched from one emotional state to another.  In this case, you
went from being in a state of feeling “down” to a state of
“laughter”.  The state of “laughter” would be your trance, because
it’s your altered state.

In the case of the Renegade Fighter hypnosis audio sessions, I help
you get relaxed.  So, as you listen to the program, you are
switching from whatever state you are in to a state of
relaxation. 

Relaxation is the trance in this situation.

When you enter a trance (that changes from one emotional state to
another), that process is hypnosis.  Whenever this happens, you
become more “suggestible”.

“Suggestible” means that you tend to accept and follow commands and
ideas with little or no resistance.

That is what these sessions are about.

I know, I know… It’s different than what you see on television or
in the movies; but this is all a trance is.  It has nothing to do
with rituals, magic, or any other kind of esoteric bullshit.

When experiencing formal hypnosis for the first time, most people
tell me, “It just feels like I was sitting there listening to you
talk.  I don’t feel any differently.”

That’s great, because I want you to feel as if every idea that I
talk about is coming from inside you; and everything is perfectly
natural.

In reality, I’m helping you to direct your thoughts
and ultimately influence your behavior, to become the best fighter
possible.

It really is the easiest way in the world to help you become a more
kick-ass fighter. 

All you have to do is listen to the audio sessions for about 20
minutes a day.

We’ve put together a shorter sample session for you below, so be sure
to check it out.  This one is only a short 10 minute session dealing
with change and possibilities.  It doesn’t deal specifically with
combat sports, like our Renegade Fighter sessions do, but I just
wanted to give you a feeling of how simple and easy it is to use
hypnosis to make dramatic changes in your life and in the ring.

“These tools have worked great! I no longer have any fear before my
fights. Just a few months ago I almost puked before a fight because
I was so nervous. It made me feel weak. Now after using your
Renegade Fighter hypnosis Cds I always feel confident and won my
last fight by knockout!”

The vast majority of MMA training is for the physical body – strength,
endurance, skill development, etc.  These are no doubt vitally important. 

But don’t forget your mental game when it comes to your MMA training!

 This short article will show you how to use a whacked out trick
called CNS Crazy Eyes to overcome fatigue or pain almost instantly.

This technique can be used between rounds.  It requires some
pre-fight practice.  The first time that you use it, it will take
approximately five to ten minutes.  Once you’ve learned how to do
it, it will only take a few seconds at most.

CNS Crazy Eyes actually rewires the Central Nervous System
(CNS).  Once you learn and experience this technique, it is
permanently wired; and it will get stronger the more you use it.

1.  Identify a challenge that you’re experiencing.  For example,
“I’m tired”, “I think my rib is broken”, or any other physical
feeling that is taking away your focus.  Acknowledge the location
of that feeling in your body as well as imagine what it would look
like of you could actually see it.  Concentrate on that for a
moment until you can recall it quickly.

2.  Stop doing step 1.  Now, stare up between your eyes at a
45-degree angle until your eyes defocus.  NOTE: The eyes MUST
defocus during this step.  The first time you do this, it may take
two to three minutes or longer.

3.  Stop doing steps 1 and 2 for a few seconds.

4. Now, do steps 1 and 2 (the physical focus and weird eye
position with de-focus) while holding both arms straight out to
each side and stretched as far back as you can get them.  Now,
slowly bring your arms forward and wiggle your fingers until your
can see both your right and your left fingers in your peripheral
vision… all this is done while you continue to do steps 1 and 2. 

Upon completing these steps, you have just rewired your brain.  If
you were dealing with fatigue, you will find that the fatigue is
gone.  If you were in pain, it will likely be reduced.

After a short time practicing the CNS Crazy Eyes, you will be able
to complete it in just a few seconds between rounds.

We know it sounds crazy – that’s why we named it Crazy Eyes!

Work with it for a while and you will have a weapon that few other
fighters possess.

The Zone – it is the Holy Grail of the MMA mental game… the elusive mind/body state in which everything comes together.Fighters describing the experience of being “in the zone” usually sound like this: “Everything felt right” “My punches were so fluid” “I knew exactly what to do” Etc, Etc. Ah yes…all fighters have had this experience. Some for only a moment or two, some for fight or even a string of fights. But what is the Zone, anyway? How do we get there and STAY there? There are certainly plenty of theories thrown by PhDs in sports psychology as to the exact biochemical happenings in the brain and nervous system during “zone time”. They even hook athletes up with electrodes and monitor a shitload of information and biofeedback data. This is all done to assist these athletes in their quest for the Holy Grail…the Zone. They just don’t get combat sports psychology, and the MMA mental game. Although it would be kind to assume that these Ivory Tower theorists have the best intentions, my gut tells me that it is usually more a case of “intellectual masturbation”. Regardless, the whole thing really reminds me of Monty Python and The Holy Grail. In other words, a fruitless endeavor doomed to failure because it is based on inane premises and therefore produces deluded conclusions. However, it does provide a decent amount of comic relief, at least for me. OK, so maybe I’m exaggerating (but just a little bit). The quest to somehow evoke the Zone state and maintain it is misguided by most people because it is seen as a foreign destination – a state of being outside of the golfer’s natural mind/body state. Here’s the big news …drum roll please…the Zone is your natural state of being. That’s right – the Zone is NOT a state of being that you have to “get into” and then hope and pray that you stay there. Rather, the Zone is your true state of mental and physical being. It is the place to which you return when you are finally able to eliminate and clear the specific impediments to your natural freedom state. These impediments include (but are not limited to): Self doubt Fear Tension Comfort Zones Anger Etc., etc. The important point is that these issues keep you from LIVING in the zone, both inside the ring/cage and out. The key is to “clear” or “eliminate” these issues… and then… POW!…you are in the Zone. This is the key to mastering your MMA mental game. After a relatively short period of time, the Zone will start to feel normal, because it is indeed your natural state of being. Renegade Fighter Mindset Techniques are designed to clear these issues that keep you from being in the Zone, and from racking up the victories you deserve. Our Renegade Fighter program is not the only way to clear your issues. It just happens to be extremely fast, simple to learn, and is specific to combat sports. No electrodes or biofeedback devices required. Are YOU ready to LIVE in the ZONE? Forget about the quest for the Holy Grail. Leave that to Knights who say “NI” (and the PhDs).
