Anderson “The Spider” Silva
In my opinion, the greatest known fighter in the world! Anderson Silva is a complete fighter. His striking game, astounding! His ground game, brilliant! What’s also very remarkable are the names of the victims caught in the spider’s web. In case you have not had the opportunity to see him in action, enjoy some of his best highlights!
The Spider is a remarkable athlete. If you’ve taken the time to watch the highlights, I’m sure you’ll agree that the way he slips punches and reacts to his opponents is quite extraordinary. Pay attention to how agile, nimble, and focused Silva is. it’s no wonder he strikes with the precision of a true lion!
When was the last time you did some reactive training? My favorite reactive exercises involve the reactive ball. At the end of tough workout, I will at times have my clients make multi-directional quick movements on a matted area. I toss the reactive ball, and expect my clients to catch the ball after one bounce. Three minutes with one the right hand, followed by another three minutes catching with the left usually does the trick! This exercise promotes good hand eye coordination, improves agility, and elevates the heart rate!
