What’s your workout like?

I am not a competitive MMA fighter or anything, but I was curious what your workouts are like? So… If you don’t mind sharing: what are you training for, what’s normal week like (even though you might do different things al the time) and how long…..?

Thank 

I'm just working some GPP stuff these days. Intervals 3-5 days a week (varied intervals), lifting 2-3 times a week with some conditioning shit mixed in.

I lift M,T,TH,F (full body sessions), do gripwork at least 3-4 days a week (T,W,Sat, Sun), do conditioining drills (bears or burpees) 1-2 days a week (whenever I feel masochistic), and highland games training 3-6 days a week (whenever I'm bored).

I basically do a modified workout form rossboxing.com's Infinite Intesity.

Monday - Warrior Challenge (blends strength & conditioning)
Tuesday - Aerobic run
Wednsday - HIIT
Thursday - Lift
Friday - Aerobic run
Saturday - GPP

Then go to BJJ 2-3 times a week and Kickboxing 2-3 times a week depending on my work schedule and how my many injuries feel.

BTW Urban I downloaded your random workout gereator a few weeks ago. It's great. Thanks.

I used to lift heavy. But lately I've been stressing muscular endurance and cardio. I do a three-round Tabata db routine that I can fit in before work in the morning ... It only takes about twenty minutes total to complete.

And jiu jitsu 3-4 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and alternating Saturday mornings) for about two hours. Those sessions include about 21 minutes (three seven minute rounds) of sparring at a decent pace.
