if you think p90x is garbage, what do you reccommend/ or think is viable instead?
Depends on your goals.
For strength or overall conditioning I'd say give Eric Cressey's "Maximum Strength" a shot, very good routine: http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Strength-S...7814&sr=8-1
For just strength I'd have to lean towards Jim Wendlers 5/3/1 you and look up his book or check out this free article for the gist of it: http://www.tmuscle.com/free_online_artic...d_pure_strength
For mass/size I'd say hop on an 8 week cycle of some test and deca and bust ass for the next 5 years of your life.
Honestly any sort of bodypart split would work for size or hypertrophy training. Moderate to high reps for isolation movements mixed in with some heavy compounds (squat, deadlift, bench.
Like I said initially, diet is key, regardless of the goal (size, strength, or conditioning).
rofl, are you serious? We're talking endurance and real strength. If you want to look like a roided up gorilla I definitely suggest reading those books. If you want to be able to outlast, outwork, and destroy those same guys who can deadlift 500 pounds. If you don't care either way and want to casually work out, then anything will work BUT those books.
lol? Gotta love LoD lackies. JIM WENDLER AND ERIC CRESSEY are SOME OF THE TOP NAMES IN STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING. So immediately discounting their books based on your opinion of them making you look like a "roided up gorilla" show how uneducated about the subject you really are.
So, first of all, shut the fuck up you until you've actually picked up a weight and not a mouse or a keyboard. lulz.
Second, you're absolutely retarded: the only way one can end up "looking like a roided up gorilla" is if that person is "roided up."
Thirdly, since you're some hot shot MMA queer that loves to roll around with other guys on his free time, you should know of all the professional fighters who have hired professional strength coaches to assist them in their training. Rich Franklin, Randy, Anderson Silva, Sean Sherk, etc all have strength coaches on payroll. All with very similiar, if not the same, training methods as Eric Cressey or Joe DeFranco (any of their books are great addition for any athletes library).
Hell...I name drop like it's hot right now. I've gone through strength conditioning sessions with Urijah Faber, Scott Smith, and James Irvin several different times. They all will tell ya that any MMA fighter would benefit by some form of strength conditioning. Hate to throw Lesnar out there, but why do you think he can dominate so damn much? Because he is 10x more athletic, stronger, and better conditioned than his oppenents. More skilled? absolutely not, he just shits all over them in the aformentioned department.
anyway, stay out of the gym. Keep rolling with your boyfriends. Maybe your dreams of Renzo pulling you into his guard will come true.
