Is this good enough

Post by kbm292 »

This is what I do on a weekly basis and it is working for me but I just wanted some other opinions and maybe suggestions.

Monday - Muay Thai / Jiu Jitsu
Tuesday - Weight training (shoulders, legs and upper back)
Wednesday - Muay Thai / Jiu Jitsu
Thursday - Weight training (biceps, abs and lower back)
Friday - Muay Thai / Jiu Jitsu
Saturday - Weight training (chest, triceps and forearms)
Sunday - Day off.

We do a lot of cardio and plyometrics on the Muay Thai / Jiu Jitsu days.

you haver a fair workload there so you gym time shoulkd be all about effieciency

efficient - squats, deadlifts. rows, pull ups, bench presses

not efficient - shoulders, biceps, abs, forearms, triceps, isolating lowwer back and upper back

stick to the efficient exercises for 30 - 45min gym sessions 3/week and you'll be golden

you might want to make your main heavy leg day sat as you get a day off in btw your mma days

Thank you Swanso, I take that into consideration and modify workouts for the next little while and see how that goes for me.
