Max has undertaken Zenithial Body Master (ZBM) as his somewhat controversial training regimen at the midpoint of the season. Some of the key principles of ZBM include:
* Pranic Breathwork - ZBM combines ancient breathing techniques from a multitude of mystical traditions. This is thought to help channel energy throughout the body, purify the mind and increase physical performance. A pure mind is necessary when reading the QBs thoughts.
* Unpredictable Training - Spontaneous and unpredictable workouts which include random movements and unconventional exercises are believed to increase adaptability and coordination. Adaptability is always vital during a long drive or a tough second half.
* Energy Transfer - One of the unique concepts associated with ZBM, it involves transferring energy from other sources to oneself to increase vitality and strength. This is most often thought to work best from living objects. Max has really taken a liking to this concept and says he "can feel the energy being drained from his opponents" after he tackles them.
* Extreme Contrast Therapy - By subjecting yourself to intense temperature and sensory contrasts it's thought you can shock your body and increase physical and mental resilience. Max believes these are important concepts for the long and arduous seasons in the DSFL and ISFL.
