Just formulated my new programme tonight, last 6 weeks have been spent on mainly 6-8 rep power work with 2 Agonist/Agonist splits and a full body session in the gym, then Abs, Core, Plyometrics and Sprints left as separate sessions outside the gym. 6 Weeks before that was spent on basic Agonist/Antagonist for strength training at 8-12 reps. Training is aimed at building strength, power, speed and fitness for Rugby and MMA, so here goes:

Day 1 – Total Body (Emphasis: Chest & Shoulders)
4 x Flat Bench DB Flies, 15/12/8/10 reps
3 x One Arm Power Cleans, 8/8/8 reps
3 x Incline DB Chest Press, 12/8/10 reps
Giant Leg Press, reverse pyramid drop set, 6-8 reps each drop, 3 drops
3 x High Pull, 8/6/8 reps
3 x Lat Pulldowns WG, 12/8/10 reps
3 x Superset - Barbell Bench Press, 12/10/8 reps
Weighted Bench Dips, to failure
3 x Bicep Cable Curls, 12/6/8 reps

Day 2 – Total Body
4 x Bent Over Rowing, 15/12/8/10 reps
3 x High-Hip Deadlifts, 20/15/18 reps
Giant Hamstring Curls, reverse pyramid drop set, 6-8 reps each drop, 3 drops
3 x Eccentric Push Press, 10/8/8 reps
3 x Dumbell Bench Press, 12/8/10 reps
3 x Superset – Preacher Curls, 10/6/8 reps
            Behind Head Tri Extensions, 12/8/10 reps
4 x Cable Cross Overs, 15/12/10/12 reps
3 x Barbell Bicep 21s

Day 3 – Total body

3 x Superset - Squats, 10/6/8 reps
Calf Raises, reverse pyramid drop set, 6-8 reps each drop, 3 drops
3 x Barbell Bench Press, 12/8/10 reps
3 x Reverse Grip Pushdowns,
3 x Giant Set - Arnold Press, 12/8/10 reps
            Cable Lateral Raises, 8/8/8 reps
            Cable Front Raises, 8/8/8 reps
3 x Incline Flies, 15/10/12 reps
3 x Barbell Step Ups, 10/10/10 reps
3 x Back Extension Row, 15/10/12 reps
3 x WG Seated Rowing, 12/8/10 reps
3 x Cable Hammer Curls, 12/8/10 reps

Starting this tomorrow, hoping it works! Ideas behind it are three full body sessions for control, muscle density, consistent strength and shock training. Lots of compounds and power moves for all round development, and the choice of full body sessions to replicate the unpredictability of a match. :)

1 arm dumbbell row 3x10
cable row 3 x 10
Shrugs 3 x10
Tri pushdown (using rope) 3 x10
Tri pushdown (bar) 3 x 10
1 arm tri extension with dumbbell 3 x10
Sit ups

Day 2 (Legs)

Leg Extension 3 x10
Squat 3 x 10
Hack Squat 3 x 10
Calf Raises 3 x 12
Sit ups

Day 3 (Shoulders)

Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press 3 x 10

Cable Cross over 3 x 10
Arm Curls 3 x 10

I'd been doing that routine for ages. I'm in fairly good shape. I'm not particularly big (5'10'' and around 13st 9lbs)
For the last 2 weeks I've changed up my routine slightly, doing 5 sets of 5 reps on pretty much the heaviest weight I can do the 5 reps on. also with not much rest inbetween sets.

So I now do this:

Day 1 (Back and Biceps)

- Latpull down
- Bent over row (olympic bar)
- shrugs
- seated cable row
- preacher curls
- hammer curls

day 2 Chest Triceps

- Flat dumbbell Press
- Incline Dumbbell Press
- Cable Cross over
- Tricep Extension (rope)
- Tri Extension (single arm dumbbell above head)

Day 3 (Legs and Core)

- Leg Extension
- Squat
- Hack Squat
- Calf Raises
- Obliques (using 25kg disc)
- Straight Arm cable twists
- Crunches
- Plank

Day 4 (shoulders)

Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press
single arm shoulder Press
Lateral Raises
Front Raised
Rear delts

managed to do a couple of decent sets on the 50kg dumbbells on chest press yesterday, very happy with that. Just need my gym to purchase 55kg and 60kg ones now lol

T0NY

i do racks instead of deads because of an niggle, each week i lokwer the rack pull height so in a couple of months this will be a full deadlift. my thinking is that this will slowly strengthen my back without aggravating it

Tony have you a link to maybe a vid for this might want to try this as my lower back is the weakest part.

Re:Members Routines....POST YOURS! (derbyflan)

Hi all,

I,m 6 weeks into this routine and I'm wondering if I'm over doing it??

Day 1: Legs
Day2: Chest and Back
Day 3: Abs
Day 4: Shoulders and Arms
Day 5: Rest

I spend about an hour each session and target each body part with 3 exercises doing 3 sets of 10-12 reps per set. For example, Day 2 consists of: Incline Dumbell flyes, Flat Dumbell press, machine press and cable crossovers. Then, seated rows, Lat pull downs and bentover rows.

I've made some gains and with the help of a high protein/low carb and almost zero fat diet (plus 3 protein shakes a day I've dropped some excess body fat.

Trouble is, I'm exhausted! I train to failure on the last set on every exercise.

Comments and advice please :)

Im sure most preople will be quick to jump to the overtraining point, i do not over train. All my form is very strict and perform all excersies with moderate to heavy weight (when i need to). Most excersises are pyrmided upto the heavy weights. The basis of the routine was given to me by and ex mr britain and mr universe i then chopped and changed to to suit my needs. There are no dumbell presses for chest as a ripped my shoulder out of the socket when i first started training due to sh*tty form and a bad spotter so i will say again my form is strict and i dont go overly heavy. I dealift every so often but do not find it helps my back and i use it for legs after squats replacing leg press. My Training days are usually monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday with friday,saturday & sunday off. Hope People can get somthing out of this. peace out...

well log a typical day and post it up in the diet forum, as for conversions, we don't really need to know what weight your shifting it's not nearly as important the movements you are doing what order your doing them in and the volume of the routine. As long as you pck a weight you struggle to get all reps with that isn't so heavy as to compromise form.
