Hey just wondering what your take on the whole acai berry and big time stuff you see

on myspace and what not

Probably alot to ask but what would athletic training detail?
Professional I mean

like how would the days training be spent?

X hours lifting
x cardio
x specific sport

Etc.

NOW! is my fav

garbage and hyped up crap.

depends on what kind of athletic training....for a sport? conditioning? physical appearance prep? etc.

for sports but conditioning is probably the most important

thank you SKC for answering my question

well if its for general sports conditioning....you are going to have to do very specific routines for different sports...but one thing most sports have in common is high endurance, the ability to run or perform vigorous intense movements without getting tires, and proper body strength (including fast-twitch response).

try this

regular mon-fri weight training plan (1.5 hours a day)

but in addition to weight training do this:

mon - shuttle runs (suicides) until failure, followed up by hanging from a bar until failure 5 times. Take a 15 min break then begin weight training. After weight training, do 45 mins of cardio at the fastest pace you can handle on a treadmill also with the largest incline. 3.5mph at 10 incline is pretty good if you can keep it up for 45 mins straight.

tues - high jumps until failure, followed up by holding two dumbbells of light weight (maybe 5lbs) at your sides in the top end of a lat-raise. Just hold them there until failure. do this 5x. After weight training, do 45 mins of intense bike cardio.

weds - Jumping jacks for 15 minutes, followed up by 15 minutes of stair climbing. after workout you will do sled pulls (improvise if your gym doesn't have one) and do sled pulls until failure.

thurs - swimming!! swim for an hour (intense swimming with different strokes) work out as usual and then SWIM AGAIN for another hour.

fri - cable training for movement. 30 minutes of solid cable training for a particular movment (for boxing do cable punches, for baseball do cable swings and throws, etc. do regular strength training, then do 45 minutes of actual jogging cardio...no treadmill.


this is a good beginner plan for true sports conditioning. if you are looking to build up for a specific sport...then you need to change some stuff here to accommodate.

Wow thanks and as far as liftng, just base it around compound liftfs and explosivemness?

yes thats correct.
