That's a great workout......reps for one minute is legit.

You thinking Stamina for SOF?

If so, you'll stay lean, believe me.

I'm thinking Strength - just cause Ive gotten lean.  Legs and Back are shredded.  Better than when I was 25 and competed.   I was thinking doing 3 mo Strength and then 3 mo Stamina and switch.   


I have a few events coming up - not worried about it though.

Was on business trip to Dubai, Cleveland.   Pre meeting modified workout since hotel gym, while better than most, couldn't handle soflete:

1 mile run
Kneeling KB press
Goblet squat

Set of 50  pullup/burpee

Rapid band - face pull x 30 sec / tricep skull crushers x 30 sec  = 5 sets

Here is a good work out idea for you guys to where time is short, but you need maximum impact. Been getting great results from this one. 3 day work cycle - 1 day off

Need to have big clock nearby you can keep eye on and dont dilly daily - move through it with purpose:

Day 1 - Upper Body - 5 minute Rounds as Follows Repeat for 60 minutes
1. 1 minutes Jump Rope
2. 1 minutes w dumbbells - 10-12 Military Press - 7 side
laterals - 7 bent over flyes
3. 1 Minutes - 15-25 reps w 135lbs Bench Press
4. 1 minutes - 15-20 Wide Grip Pull Downs - 15-20 Close
Grip reverse pull down.
5. 1 minute - core/abs - sit ups / plank / crunches / etc.
Rest for one minute - then repeat. Keep doing that till 60 minutes are up. Can switch exercises but keep it intense.



Day 2 - Leg Day - Lower Body - 5 minutes Rounds as follows - Repeat for 60 minutes
1. 1. minutes Jump Rope
2. 1 minutes - Squats w either barbell or dumbbells.
3. 1 minutes - Stiff leg deadlift w a calf raise
4. 1 minutes - leg extensions / curls or lunges w dumbbells
5. 1 minute - Core / abs - planks , sit ups, hanging leg raises
Can vary leg exercises. Just make sure to do squats as one of the main ones each round
Rest for one minute then repeat.


Day 3 - Cardio / Core
6 10 Minutes rounds as follows:
5 minutes elyptical on Medium/Hard level
1 minute Jump rope
1 minute plank (shoulders will be screaming)
1 Minute sit ups / leg raises
1 minute Side planks or Bird Dog pose for 1 minute with both
hands and legs off the ground (30 seconds each side)
1 Minutes - Bicycle crunch


Just an idea if time is an issue.


This looks like a killer workout.

Training lately been awesome.  I guess it comes down to experimenting with programs and volume and tempos and see what is most effective for one individually.

All the things you just mentioned help maintain your ambition for bodybuilding. The opposite, which is boredom, kills it.

What time are you doing the 5 miles in with that weight on, may I ask? I'm still just sprinting and regular running at this point.

Can't speak for him (and you didn't ask me) but I'll answer anyway.

I vary it - if I do a brisk walk, it's 14-15 min mile.

If I do one minute walk, one minute shuffle run, it's 11-12.

Yeah, I remember you were putting up some quick times when I was last on here. 11-minute miles with 50lbs is a good, quick time. When I was last doing it I was running the entire distance at a fast pace, but I forget exactly what it was. I'll need to download Runkeeper again and have a look.
