A glimpse into Rickson Gracie's off-mat preparation for the 1995 Vale Tudo Fighting Championship. Rickson can be seen doing bioginastica, elastic neck exercises, stair climbing, yoga, breathing exercises and cold exposure. Although this type of cross-training is commonly seen in elite level MMA training programs today, at the time, Rickson's incorporation of these techniques was revolutionary.
Rickson Gracie is a Brazilian 9th-degree red belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and a retired mixed martial artist. He is a member of the Gracie family: the third-oldest son of Hélio Gracie, brother to Rorion and Relson Gracie, and half-brother to Rolker, Royce, Robin and Royler Gracie. In the 1980s and 1990s, he was widely considered to be the best fighter of the Gracie clan, and one of the toughest in the world. In November 2014 he became an inductee of the Legends of MMA Hall of Fame, alongside Big John McCarthy, Pat Miletich, and Fedor Emelianenko. (en.wikipedia.o...)
