WHAT HONES YOU SHOW I EP. #5: FARES ZIAM'S PATH TO PRECISION
In this episode of What Hones You, co-hosts Trevor Wittman and Luke Caudillo lead a focused conversation on performance mindset, fight IQ, and the internal standards required to compete in the UFC. Fares Ziam takes us on a journey inside one of the sport’s most demanding divisions, becoming the lens for a deeper discussion on discipline, composure, and deliberate preparation.
Trevor brings the technical coaching perspective — breaking down decision-making under pressure and the mechanics behind calculated performance. Luke explores the psychological architecture behind elite growth — emotional regulation, maturity, and long-term development. Together, they guide a conversation that goes beyond wins and losses and into the structure behind sustainable excellence.
Through Ziam’s evolution, listeners gain insight into how high-level fighters refine awareness, sharpen judgment, and build standards that hold under fire.
This episode speaks to fighters, coaches, competitors, and anyone who value growth over hype — and who understand that longevity in combat sports depends on discipline, not emotion.
