theres tons of stuff you can do outside of the gym. what do you want to work on?
some drills we do in a mock sparring environment are things like one person only using foot sweeps, not using your favorite techniques, only using one technique, one person not resisting, going back and forth exchanging techniques, just gripping, just foot sweeps stuff like that.. and all of that you can pretty much modify regardless of style just set up what type of rules or what not and go for it and you obviously do not need to go 100% to get a lot out of them so play safer when you are outside your gym.

I'm downloading the file now, Oak. Thanks. It's fuckin' huge, uch.
Judo Tom - I didn't have anything in particular in mind. I wanted to know the types of drills a person could practice, either alone, or with a friend, in order to condition yourself to becoming better in the ring.
Obviously the best time you could spend would be in a class, but right now I can't fit that in. I guess I thought more along the lines of the basics - things that normal people (those who don't fight) need to become accustomed to. For example, someone who boxes is used to having jabs thrown at them. It becomes second nature to bob and weave out of the way, and they don't flinch as much as people who never had a strike thrown their way.
Anything like that you can think of to condition a non-fighter?

When your outside of class you need to work on your weaknesses. If the are hand techniques, work on nothing but hand techniques. If it is fighting with your left leg, fight with nothing but your left leg. Outside of class is a great place to bring up lacking techniques.

ahh well that changes my answer for sure..
id say on your own w/o classes that it is important to be exposed to or know all the basic positions and what to do from each position regardless of what 'side' you are on and that goes for standing, clinched,ground.
the more you focus on the basics and not just the positions but the principles the quicker you will pick up more advanced techniques and you will learn to adapt to new situations much faster.
so i would study the positions and get helped out with the technique and then just start light sparring out of each position and then mix it up and combine more and more as you progress.
tell your partner at times to point out your mistakes while you spar as well.. it is not the best way to do it for endurance sake but at times you have to be told you are making a mistake as you make it not after you made it.
hope this helps..
btw d/ld that bas rutten workout.. thats a great thing to do on your own

How about just general conditioning stuff? Other than "running" or "situps"... stuff like plyometric-type movements to improve overall conditioning... got any suggestions for that?
Try shadowboxing hard for 20 seconds then do burpees for 10 seconds do this for a 3 minute round, rest 1 min then try again. This is excellent for conditioning i got this off rossboxing.com.
Another is HIIT sprints
get your partner, shape up in your fighting stance and try to step on each others toes, this is a footwork dril, try to move as you would in a fight,
