By the goals you have mentioned, clearly option one , as there are more cardio sessions in it.

Apologies for the layout of this post but my return key has just died, so i cant space the post. I would think doing 30 mins sscv mon -fri with the following would be better. Mon - legs shoulders (gives you time so your legs aint fcuked for footy) . wed - back biceps. Fri - chest & triceps. sat -  sweet f'all

Option one seems more rational, option 2 has very little rest time and you have to take into account how physical football is and how it benefits both upper and lower body.

Cheers guys, thats what i've been doing only adding the cardio in the evenings on training days as just cant get up for am cardio as already up early (postman) well thats my excuse anyway
Works out overall at 2hrs sscv during the week and 1hr 30mins of footy on weekend, should keep me ticking over and using the diet to add some lean mass.
Thanks for your time lads.
