he was genetically engineered by the Russians during the Cold War to neutralize the threat of the US nuclear weapons
according to wikipedia
Fedor used to weight train extensively, but in 1999 he almost completely substituted his weight exercises with sport-specific training in grappling, boxing and kick-boxing. His strength training consists of daily pull-ups, push ups on parallel bars, and crunches. Emelianenko also runs 12-15 kilometers (7.5 - 9.3 miles) every day. Fedor is a proponent of high altitude training, and he travels to Kislovodsk, Russia with his team once or twice a year to train in high altitude.
Fedor's team consists of coach Voronov (grappling), coach Michkov (boxing), coach Ruslan Nagnibeda (Muay Thai), Oleg Neustroev (doctor, masseuse and psychologist all in one), and his training partners, including Roman Zentsov, another PRIDE fighter, and, until June 2006, Fedor's brother, Aleksander Emelianenko.
In 2005 Emelianenko started paying special attention to improving his kicking technique. He trained Muay Thai with kickboxer Ernesto Hoost in Netherlands, and added a Muay Thai coach, Ruslan Nagnibeda, “Seikin-do” league 78 kg title holder from 1998 to 2002 (33-3-1) to his team.

I admire Fedor as the most complete MMA fighter ever. He appears to be just too perfect for everyone and finds the way to beat anyone who stands in front of him. Eventually, he will find his nemesis one day who will beat him, but that one has to be really, really one hell of a fighter. I watched how he managed Crocop two years ago. Mirko put more damage to Fedor's face and body, but Fedor was dominant every second of the match. He was just pushing and pushin Crocop all the time, cornering him and basically, exhausted him. Fedor is very clever and he didn't rush in too much into stand up fight, instead he grounded Mirko whenever he could, since there he is especially good.
Others who cross my mind that had Fedor for a second or two are Kevin Randleman (he threw him like he wanted to break his neck), Josh Barnett (had him but he just couldn't finish armbar - Fedor was too tough in defence) and Coleman, but Fedor has shown amazing feature of recovery within a couple a moments only, and those guys basically didn't have any chance after that.
I would say that the main reason why Fedor is so dominant is combination of his fantastic skills and incredible survival instinct.

There's a wicked video of him training on You Tube, you can see him swinging a sledge hammer on some tires (if I remember correctly), that'll build up some brute strength. He also does a lot of exercises similar to the sledge hammer one that help develop raw power.
