Working out in state-of-the-art gyms is overrated.  Fedor amassed a decade-long record of dominance using nothing more than some spare tires and a swingset.  While most fighters are using all that fancy equipment in the UFC, they could have accomplished the same results with some sidewalk chalk and a seesaw.  The Western world is doomed when it comes to playground conditioning.  In fact, when Fedor trained for his fights like everyone else, he lost three straight fights in Strikeforce.  Luckily for all of us, Fedor has returned to the playground, one with tennis courts and all sorts of familiar toys to play with.  We even found this video of Fedor of him preparing for his upcoming fight with Pedro Rizzo, and while he looks like he may have put on some weight, that’s Fedor’s optimal shape for heavyweight dominance.

This is what Tim Sylvia thought his work out video looked like.

Interesting to see Fedor finally adopting modern strength and conditionning training...
Hope that's not too late for him and he gains back some physicality ( speed and strength ) from it

I'm pretty sure this is a Dutch training camp in the Netherlands.

"At his Vital Skills training camp in the Netherlands, Fedor prepares himself with Peter Teijsse, Maxim Leijdekker, Ernesto Hoost, Jerrel Venetiaan, Marco de Wit and others."

This is clearly not the Netherlands since the sun is shining.

Edit: It is the Netherlands... epic fail by me.

In Russia fighters train in the playground and children play in the gym.
