I've trained at a lot of gym's in my day's. There is one gym I call a "home-gym" that I come back to eventually. During my competitions and boredom I like to bounce around here n there. I like to train at other gyms to get a feel for the energy and train with other friends/competitors. So I've trained at a lot of gyms in my area. During one era I remember bodybuilding was a huge hit through out the gym's. I assumed bodybuilding was the only sport that gyms could cater too. Not any more.
Now, I see MMA/UFC cage training through out the gym's. It seems to have taken over the primary training ideal for gym's in my area. At any given time I can see someone training in a method for stamina and agility for cage fighting. Last night it was late and I watched someone running around the floor gym then dropping down doing one handed push ups with one leg curled up behind the other knee opposite then running to the lats machine and pushing out multiple reps. I can notice this kind of obvious training morning, day, or night now. Being among these gyms I have no choice but to take notice much of the training has converted to a cage fighting type training and kicking out a lot of cage fighters these days.
I remember I would take a certain aware of the most built guy in the gym. Now I take notice of the most competitive and consistant training cage fighter among the gym. With mixed martial arts and agility/strength training. This new bread of athlete's are an eye opener to me.
I think we are seeing a catchy and athletic training style movement sweep across the gym arena these days.
