Just a quick one for now gents: There's some good information in this thread, but there's also a lot of misconception. First; just because x=good for strength training doesn't translate into x=good for cardiovascular training . Give it some thought. Second. The sprint workouts in this book aren't s...

I don't know if you guys familiar with this magic product. I use it for protein shakes: Kefir, protein powder banana (or berries). Works like charm. I use Lifeway brand.

I'm 1,88m (6,16ft) tall with 85kg (187lbs) and a body fat rate of approx. 10%. I passed all tests and now, due to the upcoming tasks, I should gain a few kg in the nexts...

This is awesome, thanks! Taking a temporary break from Op to prep for annuals...and this really helps. If you're just training a handful of SE exercises for PFT or qualification (3-4 tops) - then another option is to repeat that cluster: SE Cluster - Push-ups/Pull-ups/Sit-ups Fighter Cluster - Benc...

Lol good point!

You need to remember that Conor was an mma fighter in a boxing match with one the the greats of boxing. You get Floyd Wrestling or doing BJJ and Conor would have the better conditioning of the two. "Cardio" is sport specific and while there is carryover, nothing beats years of experience ...

My 0.02 here is that if you've never tried Operator as is, do that first. You can always add or subtract down the road. You also might find that adding sets is a more effective strategy rather than adding in an extra dynamic day. It'll optimize your recovery time and help with work capacity, strengt...
