Checked. As other anons have said, the basic compound exercises (squat, bench, deadlift, overhead press, rows) are all good, I'd personally argue that trapbar/hexbar deadlift is a better option for most people than barbell deadlift. Farmer carries (or even holds) can be good for grip strength, hell just hold your last deadlift rep of the day for as long as you can. Like anything consistent training is key, though if you're also training martial arts you need to be careful with your programming: Alternating lifting days and martial arts days, or doing lower lifting intensity on the days you'll train martial arts, etc. I like to do a little lifting before bjj/kickboxing, but the lifting sessions in my case are very minimalist to just maintain strength I've built up over the years. Some other guys at my gym train Mon-Sat, but skip martial arts on Wednesdays to lift full body instead. Lots of different ways to do it.

They actually do super secret strength exercises
Created by mystical gurus in the ancient past
Passed down through the generations of masters
The Sacred Truth, revealed only to the worthy
Nah they just do what everyone else does, plus dumb gimmicks because their coach told them to
