Default Strength-Endurance program ... for the MMAist in me

It all started when i got a PM from my good buddy Dave. He said here check this out I think you'll like it: Article Here

Dave was right, it peaked my interest. So I went to Lyle McDonalds forum to see what that crazy bastard thought about it (cause I respect his opinion highly) and here is what went down: thread Here





Now personally I think all of this is extremely useful, and I am going to put together a strength-endurance program from all of this. But here i'd like to open it up to further discussion, and see what you guys think about it.

The first thing I would put out there is something lyle said, that wasnt very pronounced, but I think is perhaps the largest draw back to this type of workout.

Initial strength is going to be the limiting factor here. A program such as this will increase your strength endurance, but your 1 rep max is not going to change much. For that reason I think it would be best to cycle a S-E routine, with a strength building routine, perhaps at a 3 to 1 ratio.




I also want to point out there isnt much room here for hypertrophy, so if bodybuilding is your goal, this aint got nothing for you. Personally I have no need for hypertrophy right now. I'm big enough, but there is always room to hit harder.

My personal program to follow, that shit still needs tweeking.
