MMA - Cardio
This day will consist of ploymetrics, speed drills, and good old endurance training. On my own for now, until I find a suitable gym.

Tuesday
Resistance Traing 1

Flat bench - 2min total time, 3 rep sets, focus on speed, the point is to increase the amount of 3 rep sets performed within the time peroid, with a set wieght. I will have to test the wieghts the first week or two, i'm hoping for something in the 265+ range.

Leg Press - same as above

Circut Training, super set all movements, I would like to get some kettle bell work in here if I can, I'll have to borrow from dave on these. Perhaps complexes would work nicely here. If not high reps sets, keeping heart rate up.
I have to say, I like the Bench Press idea. I goes along with the idea of the SE but you increasing reps within a time frame instead of weight or decrease rest time.

But I'm a little confused and I just what to make sure I'm interpreting this right.

So, you do as many sets of 3 in 2 minutes? If so, how long to you rest in-between sets?

Resistance Day 2

standing MP's 2min drill (like flat bench/legpress from day 1)

clean an press 2min drill
Like this too.

Don't forget if you can't get a kettlebell you always have sandbags. These are two site I thought were great for sandbags.

You know After doing a round of my SE routine, I'm starting to see different possibilities in crossing cycles. Like my complex cycle, I do a max effort lift then all endurance type work, with a couple regular exercises, i.e., 1-2 sets of bi's or tri's, which is something very similar to what you had before. I think as long as you attempt to make small increments in the Big 3 while using Olympic lifts and speed drills it will make a well rounded routine. Of course deviating and doing 5x5 is always good. ;)
