Well I finally found a dojo to join, it teaches a mix of Kenpo Karate, Aikido, and jiu jitsu. I've had six classes so far and sparring and rolling with these guys made me realize how bad of shape i'm in. I have class twice a week, and for right now the plan is to do 3 days of high octane cardio and 2 days of lifting.
The h.o.c. will be intervals off jump roping or heavy bag mixed with light db stuff like snatches, clean and press, etc..The lifting will just be a slight variation of Waterbury's hammer down program for mma.
As far as diet i'm not going to be counting calories, just eating 5-6 small clean meals throughout the day. My goal is just to lose about 2 pounds a week, eventually getting to around 180 probally. Some stats:
Weight: 203 (as of this morning)
Bench: 200x3
Deadlift: 275x3
Testing some other lifts later today, lifts are down from summer due to lack of training.
I'm sure some of you know a lot more about training from MA than I do, so if you have any advice please share it.
