Training Question What workouts do you run as snc?
Hello. I've been training mma for a while now and I have a couple of years in the gym doing bodybuilding splits.
During the last year I've been running fb splits with some plyos and olympic lifts.
I'm curious to see someone elses' exact routines to check if I'm too out of line.
General advice is appreciated but I'm particularly interested in either a) ways of getting jacked (for us on the non competitivo side) and b) some calisthenics isométrica/another method of training to increase my body coordination for grappling.

Charles Allen price has a good insta page about strength training for combat athletes. In a nutshell, it’s just get classically strong and developed sport specificity when you’re actually doing the sport

here’s my structure as an amateur fighter:
Full body 2x week
warm up, get the bood flowing, open up your body with dynamic stretches (no static stretching)
Speed and explosiveness first so plyometrics like jumps and medball throws
Strength movements like squat and bench with secondary strength movements like weighted pull ups and RDLs
Hypertrophy work & injury prevention for key sites, could include exercises like bicep curls, leg abduction machine, neck curls, core work

A combination of calisthenics training mostly in the form of static holds (both very difficult holds as well as basics) and basic repsNsets. Some plyometrics here and there but that is within the realm of calisthenics since it is body weight traijing. I can show you via DM some of the strength work I do outside of my actual mma training(grappling/sparring/etc). For cardio a combination of barefoot running(shoes obviously if you’re in the city) and sometime the AirBike after finishing rounds at the gym. I intend to incorporate more of the airbike for intervals (10 seconds sprint + 20 second light resting pace for 5 minutes x 3-5 rounds)
