BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS
High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com
For the past 3 months I have been training in MMA, but havent touched weights. Basically my injury mind fucked me and I was in complete dissarray, and really had no idea how to cure the physical problems I have.

After weeks and weeks of research, seeing chiropractors, PT's...etc, I finally nailed it and am on my way to fixing my postural problems and muscular imbalances, as well increasing my joint health.

The workout:

Foam roll
Dynamic warmup including Joint "circles"
Glute activation
KB snatch
Chins
KB front squats
Reverse Hypers
Cable rows
DB chest fly stretch
Static stretching of hamstrings, hip flexors, calves, ankles and neck

I will slowly progress into full workouts once I feel I have proper mobility in my joints

Yesterday's workout

Foam roll
Dynamic warmup
Glute activation

KB snatches - 3x10/55lbs
Chins - 30 total/bw
KB front squats - 3x8/16kg
Reverse hypers - 3x12/20lbs
Cable rows - 3x12/70lbs
DB Chest fly stretch - 3x30s holds/20lb DB's

Stretch

Great workout, I supersetted the snatches and the chins to see where my conditioning is at. Its pretty bad but i nailed 30 reps of pullups after 30 reps of snatches, needless to say my lats and entire upper back was pumped like no other. KB front squats were a first in this program, felt like my glutes were doing most of the work and focused on a full ROM and a glute squeeze at the top

next w/o will be fri, will possibly add some GHR's in next week

On a mon/wed/fri schedule

Todays workout

Foam roll
Dynamic warmup
Glute activation

KB snatches - 3x10/55lbs
Chins - 35 total/bw
KB RDL's - 3x5/16kg
Reverse hypers - 3x12/20lbs
Cable rows - 3x12/80lbs
DB Chest fly stretch - 3x30s holds/20lb DB's

Stretch

Dunno bout the RDL's just yet. After i did them, my hamstring behind my knee felt very tight so i stretched it.

I ended up bangin a girl in the back of my truck so of course somethin had to happen, my glutes cramp up real bad cuz of the angle and knees startin buggin. Might leave the RDL's out for another week. whateva, she didnt seem to mind about my increased glute strength

had to cut it short today, forgot to post in here the last week. I've been in these books alot, super joints is fucking amazing. I do a short dynamic workout everyday when i wake up, warm my joints up and i feel like im 10 years younger. The stretches are really great too, finally I am getting somewhere, I should be doing real workouts soon.

I also joined a new BJJ/muay thai school today. This place is HUGE, and there is lots of talent. Can't wait to get in there and show what I got

This journal inspires me to start back up with Yoga. Before you mentioned you were going to do it. Did you ever end up trying it?

Nope, I wish I did. Although my friends father's best friend just finished writing a Yoga book, I read bits and pieces and tried alot of what he recommended, pretty amazing stuff

Yes. What I plan on doing is taking some more classes and just write down what I did when I get back home, then just do them from my house or the gym.

The house is a safer bet, I wouldn't want to be interrupted when I'm in a pretzel

lol, good point. Alot of those poses can be pretty silly looking to the average eye. Yoga is always a great way to deload. That is where a class would come in handy, more organized and fast paced. Keeps the muscles loose and activated, plus those isometrics can be a good workout w/o too much tax on the CNS.
