Orginal Post: setsu nin to: New workout routine
Blade
Ok, ive recently started a new workout routine which i actually find enjoyable and very comfortable with. i do it every 2nd day,
2200m Jog
3 Sets of every excercise :
Pushups with legs elevated on a chair
Situps
Dips ( Feet on couch arms holding onto chair )
Different Ab excercise
Chin-Ups
Another Ab exercise
Hyperextensions ( Only if i have a partner to hold my legs still )
I dont feel sore, i get a full day's rest beside my gung-fu training but its not really straining the muscles. the next workout im ready to give 110%.
So what do you have to say about my routine ? good ? bad ? improvements ?

Just a suggestion, but if you want a really good intense body weight type routine you should try the Navy Seal's training routine. It's done 3 times a week monday, wednesday, friday and boy it will tucker you out. It requires great muscular endurance and by the time you're on your last couple of sets you'll be struggling through each pushup. It also includes a running schedule if you're up for that but the exercises themselves are pretty good. They are mostly upper body so you can encorporate your leg exercises on the off days. I've been doing it for the last 6 months or so in alternate with a week of weight lifting and I've enjoyed it and found pretty good gains. Take a look at this link and maybe it will appeal to you.

Yeah thats true, they'll give you amazing muscular endurance, but for fighting being able to pack a powerful punch is just as important. A combonation of body weight exercises and lifting weights is in my opinion the best way to go, you get the best of both worlds.

Setsu very nice workout routine being a martial artist you really dont want to go power body building lifting heavy weight or else you will be sore and stiff for your training you should do minor weight lifting but dont do a lot of heavy weight remember your wanting to gain strength and muscle tone try lifting with 3 sets of light weight anywhere from 10-20 reps I would def stick with doing the Pushups crunches leg raises for lower abs and dips and there are many other exercises you can do without having to lift weights and cause injury or strain>
