Sterling recently posted a training montage video on Twitter and shared his agitate about overtraining due to the fast turnaround for UFC 292:
"Sick f**ks, push until they can’t no more. Overtraining concerns? Always. But we seem to pull back at the right time. Still going Sicko Mode. August 20th we can take a break. Until then, it’s full throttle for the fans! ☝🏾"
