Strength Endurance Routine 25 February 2010 17:03 (permalink)
Thinking about changing things up in a few weeks time. I know its not possible to do everything with one routine, but I've tried to devise one with suitable volume that which whilst still giving muscular gains would also help with MMA specific conditioning and strength endurance. I've organised it in a Push/Pull/Legs style. Time in brackets is the rest period between sets. What do you guys think?

Push

Barbell Bench 10x5 (30 seconds)
Incline Dumbbell bench 3x12 (60 seconds)
Incline Dumbbell Flys 2x10 (60 seconds)
Standing Military Press 10x5 (30 seconds)
Weighted Dips 3x12 (60 seconds)
Tricep Extensions 2x10 (60 seconds)

Pull

Deadlifts 10x5 (30 seconds)
Dumbbell Rows 3x12 (60 seconds)
EZ-Curls 2x10 (60 seconds)
Weighted Pull-Ups 10x5 (30 seconds)
Barbell Rows 3x12 (60 seconds)
Hammer Curls 2x10 (60 seconds)

Legs

Squats 10x5 (30 sec)
Split Squat 3x12 (60 sec)
S.L.D.L 10x5 (30 sec)
Good Mornings 3x12 (60 sec)
Calf Raises 2x10 (60 sec)
ABS - Aim for 10 sets of 10 (20 seconds rest) and then increase when achieved

    first number reps or sets?
    military press is 10 sets of 5 reps?
    and calf raises are 2 sets of 10 reps?

    bit confusing.

    Im aiming for an mma style routine as well as i fight 3 times a week.
    Ive noticed doing heavy days each day is causing me to be too tight for fighting so i posted up a routine idea for mma... doing circuits twice then a heavy day with cardio twice a week.

    do you currently fight?
    I keep struggling to get my mindset out of bodybuilding routines... for mma you have to train differently.

      Yes, it's sets x reps.

      I do train in MMA but then got a bad ankle injury and haven't trained since october. I'm now ready to go back. I have strength and conditioning routines which i do that are more MMA based (i.e 3 or 4 five min rounds doing circuits with exercises like burpees, clap press ups, dumbbell swings, squat thrusts, lateral jumps, pull ups etc) but just wanted to change my weight training around a bit.

      I often do a couple of rounds of this as well which I think makes part of a good workout:
