Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping posted new training content focused on his cardiovascular conditioning work.
MMA Mania featured the video in its daily discussion thread, per a report on the site. Bisping has maintained an active training schedule since retiring from competition in 2017, mixing striking sessions with cardio and strength work.
The former champion's continued emphasis on conditioning echoes advice he has given younger fighters about gas tank management. Bisping fought into his late thirties with a famously relentless pace, earning 20 of his 30 career wins by decision.
His methods reportedly center on interval work rather than long steady-state sessions, a shift from the road running that dominated fighter camps when he broke into the sport.
The UFC has no current plans to bring Bisping back for a legends bout, though he remains under contract as a broadcast analyst.
