Street fighter workout

2010-02-17T06:00:00.000-08:00

Fighting in the todays streets is not an easy matter. I have been in many street fights. I have a lot of experience. The traditional martial arts doesnt work in the streets. I am not saying that traditional martial arts not work at all but because of some rules they dont work for that extent. Mainly the kicks. You shouldn't kick in street. Only push kicks will work. Because they may catch your legs when you kick to them. This type of things may lose one point in the martial art matches but on the streets they take your lifes. Here i have created a workout routine for fighting on the streets.

Skipping - 10 min : You need to have some stamina if you have to fight with multiple enemies
Shadow boxing- 3 Rounds : Shadow boxing is a great agility exercise. This develops power, Speed in your body. Your shadow boxing should consist of not only punches but push kicks, pulling, Pushing your opponent.
Heavy bag workout- 3 Rounds : This too develops your power
Knuckle ups- 3 sets- 10 reps : This exercise is for hardening your knuckles. Do pushups on knuckles.
Pullups - 3 sets - 10 reps : This has myriad of uses
Shoulder press- 3 sets - 10 reps : This improves your punching power
Crunches- 3 sets- 50 reps : This hardens your stomach muscles.

Brock lesnar workout routine

2010-02-12T01:49:00.000-08:00

Growing up on a farm creates the basis for a strong work ethic. A young man quickly realizes the basic principals of hard work, physical strength and mental endurance.
Brock Lesnar is no exception. Growing up in a small rural community near Webster, South Dakota, Lesnar learned from an early age what it meant to work hard. Lesnar was up before dawn every morning to do his morning chores. This was his life and his routine. What makes Lesnar an exception even to his own class of athletes is that he created an unconventional routine to build strength, speed and power.

With no gym or workout facility for miles, he used the land and the equipment from the farm to sculpt and shape his body. It wasn't uncommon to see Lesnar running full tilt down the road with a 180 pound tree log thrown over his shoulders just for fun.

Lesnar had unbelievable strength and excelled in wrestling and became a 2000 NCAA Heavyweight Champion. Soon after, he started an extremely successful career in the WWE. Despite fame and fortune, his early farm years and core values always remained at the forefront.

He sensed that the professional wrestling lifestyle wasn't for him long term and he chose to move on. His all or nothing mentality had built upon an innate quality that is the foundation of a man determined to work hard, stay true to his values and make an impact on the MMA scene.

Rising to the top of the wrestling world and with the potential to emerge as a top heavyweight contender in the UFC, Lesnar realizes the importance of exercise, diet and supplementation. Through quality products, Lesnar is able to maintain his size, strength and endurance in the gym and in the cage.

To increase his strength, build muscle and improve his overall performance, it is important to incorporate an advanced creatine formula and superior whey protein supplement. Lesnar consumes a high amount of calories on a daily basis although he usually doesn't strictly measure the amount.

Endurance In The Gym And In The Cage.

He'll eat a large amount of protein and add in supplements when time doesn't allow him to eat a full meal. Immediately after a training session it is a good practice to get in 30g of a high quality protein as well as a good source of carbs to replenish the glycogen levels depleted from the intense training. Through the day, Lesnar will consume a minimum of a gallon of water with added electrolytes.

Lesnar's regular training regimen sees him train twice a day four times a week. The morning training session is focused on fighting skills and the evening session is geared towards running and weight training.

Brock lesnar workout

2010-02-08T20:56:00.000-08:00

The way the impressive beast trains. This video is titled Brock Lesnar's Training, not wrestling, not mistakes, nothing else other than training. I am someone who appreciates hard training. Im not talking about common weight lifting Im talking about things that could somewhat compare to the training in our military such as Special Ops, etc. Just be honest enough to accept the fact that someone can do these things. I can care less what your opinion of Brock is but his dedication and determination are something deserved recognition. If you dont like it what can I say deal with it eat your bowl of s*** and like it. Or get out of here, if you dislike him so much why must continue to monitor every good thing said about him? Id like to put your sorry asses in similar training so we could film it and post it to get a big laugh out of your worthless ass. To everyone else thanks for looking and I appologize for the lack of life experience some of these visitors have shown on the comments board.

20 minute circuit workout

2010-02-08T05:20:00.000-08:00

Lose Fat, Build Muscles With Circuit Training

When the weather turns cold, I receive many emails discussing running in the cold weather, or alternative exercises you can do in the weight room that will also have a cardiovascular effect. Circuit training is one of the best ways to make a resistance and strength training workout that is also challenging for your heart and lungs.

This workout is a 20-minute workout that will take you to your maximum physical effort as well as your maximum heart rate. The object of this workout is not to rest in between exercises. You will see that one minute of a particular exercise will burn out the targeted muscle group as well as increase your heart rate to a fat and sugar burning zone. Try the 20 minute workout below - if it is not challenging enough for you try it again, totaling only 40 minutes of your time in the weight room.

20 Minutes Circuit Workout

(*choose light weights for max reps)

1) Bench press* or pushups - max in 1:00
2) Squats - max in 1:00
3) Pullups or pulldowns - 1:00
4) Bike or jog - 3:00
5) Military press* - 1:00
6) Lunges - 1:00 each leg
7) Bicep curls - 1:00
8) Bike or jog - 3:00
9) Tricep extensions.- 1:00
10) Leg ext - 1:00 (requires leg machines - or repeat squats with weights)
11) Leg curls - 1:00 (requires leg machines - or repeat lunges with weights)
12) Situps - 2:00
13) Crunches - 2:00
14) Stretch

There is an unlimited number of ways to organize a circuit workout. The above workout is organized with upper body, lower body and cardiovascular exercises. By simply doing the above upper body and lower body exercises in such a way, you will be able to rest your upper body muscles while you workout your lower body muscles, but you will never rest your heart. This is how you make the circuit workout challenging to your cardiovascular system as well as your major muscle groups. Studies have shown that mixing a resistance training regimen with a cardiovascular element will increase your metabolism, therefore burning fat and building muscle. The result is a decrease in body fat percentage.

So, if you are looking to lose inches and body fat, workouts like this coupled with 4-5 smaller meals and 3-4 quarts of water everyday will help you achieve your goal. The best thing about this diet program is that you do not need a single dietary supplement - just good old fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish and other lean meats. The key is to burn more calories than you take in and this workout will help you with that - promise.
