Please to take a look here: RossTraining - Articles

The above is an option you might consider. You must be working hard in your MA and BJJ classes. I realize weight loss and getting swole are your main goals, but in the previous article Ross shows that you can do a performance-based workout and get big. Not big and slow, but big and fast, powerful, explosive. It would mean re-vamping your workout philosophy from your current type of routine, but it really seems to me that someone who is probably working so hard in class, if he's going to get big, might as well develop fighter's muscles. Ross uses all kinds of training methods (as you can see in the video), but if you wanted to stick with only or mostly weights, you can still put together that same type of program.


If you decide to go this route, I can point you to more material and help you tune your workout. If you want to stick with a bodybuilder's workout, I'm sure there are others around who could help. Good luck whatever you decide
