Bionic Man Wannabee Routine

[Skyline21]

Okay so back into the proper training now and Im mixing between Muay-Thai and BJJ (both of which are more technique orientated in my mind and goals, despite being physically testing also) and a balance of cardio training (both aerobic and anaerobic), and strength training.

Heres my rough plan, Ill be working off a split where I lift on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday where I alternate the days.

Im 6"3 and weigh 228lbs or 103kg

Lifting is broken down like this:


Day 1:

Deadlift
Squat
Shrug
Calves
Core

followed by 5km on the rowing machine and my sprints will be synched to be 2 days after this day unless I do this on the Friday.


Day 2:

Dips
Bench - with Dumbbells and Barbell, and Incline
Pull Downs
Upright Rows
Shoulder Raises
Tricep Pulls
Military Press

followed by a 3km run and a cylce for 20 mins with heart rate at 140 bpm.


Cardio Day:

Treadmill Sprints at max Incline
1500m run to time
Plyometrics
