it really varies usually 4-5 days a week. each week though it different days. on sunday though i play football and thats a good workout for that day.

right now im getting ready for a grappling tournament and im going hard 5-6 days a week.

[Triangle-Choke]

yeah i just started a while ago so i have been going 2min- 3 max ...... but once I get in a little bit better shape ill be going as much as possible.

[Quintessential Studmuffin]

I do BJJ once or twice a week and the gym once or twice a week all depending on when im working

And I got my entire basment done with wrestling mats,2 heavybags,a small bench,and an eliptical bike. I usually use when im bored,or wanna get in a good sweat.

I really wanna start doing alot more BJJ though. Like 3-5 days a week. One or two sporadic days a week isnt doin it for me.

[Kimuras"R"Us]

I do BJJ twice a week and high intensity weight lifting 3X a week with cardio throughout.

In about 5 months Im going to NAGA. So even tho I get 2-3 days in the gym for grappling I make it count while Im there.

For good body weight exercises check out Ross Enamait book Never Gymless.

I just bought a copy of it and it has alot of good shit in it. Also, check out all of the information on his site.


I do bjj training once a week (not enough, but it is more or less with friends and not at a actual school) and I hit the gym 5 to 6 days a week.

[Skullet]

I usually train three days a week on monday, wednesday, and friday and laying off on the weekends

[Ifightforaliving]

I train 6 days a week. Your body needs a day at least to rest. I do 5 miles running and 15 miles biking 5 days a week I swimm 100 laps Mon,Wed,Fri. I get up and start my day with cardio at 5 am by 8 I am at the gym for a 1hr extreme nonstop powerlifting. then 35 minutes of sledgehammer to tire. I go home and rest for 4 hrs then at 4-5 I start BJJ,Boxing,and that stuff. I then on sat my last day I do a 5 mile run with a scuba mask on( no we did not steal it from wanderlei) or a 5 mile run with a backpack with 45 lbs added. I run hills of loose dirt 3 days a week. I focus on my diet 7 days a week no sugar no salt good carbs and supplements.I do yoga and some gymnastics for balance 3 days a week. On sundays I rest and try to do as little as possible. I try to stay off my feet all together.
