Looks solid.
I have some ideas,though.Why not throw in hang snatches/hang cleans for power? Or barbell reverse lunges (hepls with sprawls)…or towel chin ups ( head control),rack deadlifts (pulling opopnents front leg up for take down)?

Stay strong! ;))

I like it, I would personally throw in the bench press once a weak as well as some rotator cuff stuff. Biggest thing, don’t be afraid of “overtraining.” If your paying to go to a martial arts gym every day, then train there every day you can, weather you are lifting that day or not. Your body will adjust pretty quickly as long as you eat well and sleep well.

This is simply not true. He’ll just burn out quickly and quit one or the other or both.

Yea I figure it is. But not knowing the OP, I don’t want him to see this, believe it, and think it’s good to go because no one said it was a bad idea.

i may have to disagree with cutting every thin after the first three. some of the exercise selection could be improved with your chins and dips over your other chosen auxiliaries like t-bar row

cut the direct arm work switch the t bar row with chins the overhead press with a weighted dip

if you insist on a tbar row like movement atleast do a bent row

no you shouldnt be shrugging mind you in the grand scheme of things it will be as detrimental to your recovery as it is effective in your training, not very

why dumbell presses? why “kroc” rows what the fuck are you a body builder?

dont do the clean and press with dumbells get a bar cut the wide cable rows and keep the face pulls

switch your main 3 exercises to 531 scheduling it makes more sense all around than 5 of 5 so would some sheiko variation for your big three

i dont think the work loads the problem the exercise selection and arm work is
