Current UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesner defended his title this weekend against fellow heavyweight Shane Carwin in an epic battle that was a true testament to Brock’s conditioning. After an entire round of being battered by Carwin, Brock was able to weather the storm, coming back to defeating Carwin to retain the UFC heavyweight title.
Brock contributes a large portion of his success to his strength and conditioning program called “Caveman Training.” Now you can experience the same strength and conditioning program the UFC Champions like Brock Lesner, Sean Sherk, Matt Hughes and many others partake in.
The Hybrid Training Center is proud to introduce “Cave Man” Training by API (Advanced Performance Incorporated.) The first class will be offered on Saturday July 17th and will be a FREE class to all HTC members. API Certified and Muay Thai fighter Megan O’Bryan will give you a taste of what it’s like to train like a champion. Don’t miss out!

Flexibility is the most ignored part of the CrossFit ten general skills set and something we all need to work on. We avoid stretching either because of the discomfort or because the stretches we have all been taught were ineffective. Rob will teach simple, easy to use stretches that can be applied immediately. PNF stretches are fast, effective, and a proven method for restoring mobility and enhancing performance.
Rob is a 2002 graduate of the Cayce/Reilly School of Massotherapy, an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer, and a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer. Post graduate education also includes Myofascial Release Therapy, CranioSacral Therapy, and Medical Massage.
Rob combines a unique background in strength and conditioning and soft tissue therapy to provide a comprehensive treatment approach to the evaluation and treatment of pain relief and movement dysfunction.

Hybrid Coaches at S.P.E.A.R Course
April 18th, 2010
Congratulations to Owners/Instructors Buck Grant and Scott Oates for completing their P.D.R (Personal Defense Readiness) Course this weekend. The course was held in Virginia Beach Virginia and consisted of 20 hours of training, theory, and application of very revolutionary self protection principles.
P.D.R is based on the S.P.E.A.R System, founded by tactical revolutionary Tony Blauer.
The S.P.E.A.R. SYSTEM™ (Spontaneous Protection Enabling Accelerated Response) is a scientifically researched & medically reviewed personal defense measure that exploits the body’s natural responses to violence and danger. This survival mechanism, dubbed: Startle-Flinch Response has been scientifically integrated into a series of neuro-muscular drills that teaches individuals how to convert their instinctive reactions into protective and combative tactics.
Teaching at the course were the PDR Program Director Tom Arcuri and Blauer Tactical Systems Lead Instructor Tony Torres. Tony has been a long time friend and student of Mr. Torres and was honored to train with him again after man years.
In a constant effort to bring more knowledge to the Hybrid Training Center, our instructors are constantly seeking improvement and continue to train outside of their realm of comfort. Leading by example, our staff maintains a “White Belt” mentality of constant an never ending improvement. Come experience it for yourself!

Diet and Exercise
February 15th, 2010We at the Hybrid Training Center cannot prescribe diet plans, however we can recommend sources for you to better educate yourself on proper diet. Crossfiters and Mixed Martial Artists in our community have found huge success with the Paleo diet and we highly recommend that you check it out. UFC legend Randy “The Natural” Couture is a huge advocate of the diet and is still a contender in the UFC at the age of 46 and contributes a lot of his success to his eating habits.
We always encourage our students, however, to do your own research and check with your doctor before starting any new diet plan. That being said, enjoy the video bellow as it is both informative and entertaining (minus the banjo music in the background.)
