The Workout Regimen Rashad Evans Uses To Stay On Top
Rashad Evans uses just about every fighting style allowed in MMA to take down his opponents. He already had a considerable background in fighting before entering the UFC, but he changed up his workout style in order to maximize his ring prowess. 
When training for a bout, extensive workout sessions are spent perfecting his technique, getting stronger and quicker and examining potential weaknesses. Rashad Evans isn’t the time of fighter who comes into the ring looking for a knockout in the first round. Instead, he prefers to duke it out and really punish all those who challenge him.
Spending about as much time to train in the ring as we do working each day, he focuses on sparring, endurance building and strength training. Twice a week, Evans focus completely on strength training. On the remaining days he focuses on disciplines such as boxing, wrestling and takedowns.
After working out for several hours, Evans ends the day with supplementary conditioning and punching exercises. Like all serious fighters, Rashad eats a healthy, basic diet everyday.
Combined with a day off here and there, Evans gives his body the perfect balance of clean fuel and rigorous training necessary to be the best.
