Good all-around workout routine?

HeyWaj10 · 09-06-2007, 02:27 PM

Monday - Bas Rutten's MMA workout (consists of boxing, tai boxing, all around workout, etc.) -- Using as a full-body/cardio workout

Tuesday - Upper Body split (Benchpress, Bentover Rows, Overhead press, Cleans, Pullups, Weighted Pushups, DB Curl+Press, DB Tricep+Lat extension)

Wednesday - Off

Thursday - Bas Rutten's MMA workout

Friday - Lower Body split (Squats, Deads, Walking Lunges, Calf Raises)

Saturday - Off
Sunday - Off

I figured this type of cross-training will give me the best of both worlds in terms of heavy resistence training as well as a good all-around full body workout. I don't know what to say about my diet or goals, because I can't afford a bulk diet and I really wanna gain lean muscle mass (shit, don't we all). I might have to switch this up a bit for weekends I pitch for baseball. Just give me some opinion on what this might do for me, if it's any good, etc.

Thanks guys.

How long have you been working out and how well educated are you in regards to weight-training?

Been working out since junior year of high school, seriously for 3 years now. I understand a lot about weight training, technique, etc. As far as I know, this program wouldn't be overtraining, although it might be a bit much early on...but it's all about progression.
