anyone have a workout that gives results?

[Shannon]

Hey guys, was wondering by chance if anyone here on the forum has a routine that they do that gives results.

i've googled alot of different routines and gotten different opinions on each one. So i figured who better to ask than someone on the forum that more or less stays on top of their game through workouts and what not and can give me advice from experiance.

I'm looking to build more muscle and gain more power, but I done want to be huge.
I'm a firm believe in power to weight ratio.
mostly i've done basic stuff like, seated rows, pull downs, curls, pull ups, flys.

I go to BJJ training everyday except for sunday, and with our usual warm ups we do the normal, pushups, sit ups, gi lift with partner.
only supplements I usualy use is muscle milk max. simple mix with water, 40g protein. used an hour before workout, within an hour after and before bed.

anyone have any advice or tips?
Thanks guys.

I always used SPLIT ROUTINES throughout the years ; whether the 4 day or 6 day split routine , lets say mon & thur your train chest shoulders & triceps ,tue & fri you train back biceps & traps ,wed & sat legs & calves all 6 days you train abs now with todays schedules i miss a day in between or so and continue the routine the next day ., look up some at amazon.com theres a ton of stuff out there books by arnold szchwartzenegar ,bill pearl , franco columbu , lou ferigno ,vince gorunda etc all them old school bodybuilder had some of the best info ...joe weiders old books were great too

checkout mike mauler.com he ha some nice workouts on there lots of kettlebell work if your into it. I do Grappling and fight Specific training not into lifting just to lift as a Personal Trainer i tend to do somethings in my workout to maintain total body function but i tend to stick to sports specific training

Body weight exercise and suspension training kettlebells. Just be patient to get these gains could take a really long time. If your in shape and working out six days a week it will still take months or maybe longer. Just change your routine every three weeks to confuse your body. Definately train for your sport as stated above. If you train like a body builder then you will get body builder results and maybe not what your looking for. Or just spend every minute you can in the gym. Find a personal trainer that is knowledgable of MMA/JJ conditioning and they can help you get whatever results your looking for.

thanks for the info so far guys, feel more confident in getting the info from people who have done it that do the same sport I do.
my over all goal is to get more power but not be huge and massive.
im not smallest guy but i have alot of room for improvement. I play soccer so my cardio is very good if not above average.
reason being i dont want to be huge is the cost of becoming exhausted quicker. the whole concept of a power to weight ratio comes to mind in the end for an over all improvement in functional power vs. looking powerful but not having functional strength.

i am in the army and we do a lot of phyical training every morning, lol. depends on what you want for results, me i want to say in my weight class be get strong as hell while maintianing my current flexiblity, i take MRI protien, you need a gainer if you want to get big, i take a gainer as a breakfest replacement, then about 1400(2 pm) i do my work out, witch is crossfit, tire flips pullups push ups, muscle ups, etc... if you want workouts i can give them to you, my buddy is a crossfit trainer and his wife is a nutrishionist, and deitatishion. i get all my info from them and he also trains MMA.

oh and i would say away from muscle milk is has a lot of sugar, use MRI for my gainer and gold standard 100% whey for my immidiat after workout cuz your body use it up faster then soy, soy burns slow.

the protein powder i use is from muscle milk, but supposedly its a little different. Power milk. fast acting Whey, Caseinates and milk protein isolates, L-Glutamine the sugar in it is pretty low. but unsure of how much to believe in it.

though I know its bad to do, i usualy never eat breakfast. wake up around 6 on weekdays drink somethin, maybe once in a while something small like oatmeal, but usualy never fully eat till about lunch time. maybe take the protein in the morning?

[michaeldolce]

yeah but make sure it is a gainer, that way you body will burn it up, by the time lunch comes around
