What an awesome post! You really are getting me inquisitive on Ross Training. I figure for $85 its not too expensive. Does his cardio cover aerobics, anaerobics, sprints, and how to perform periodization for competiton?
Right now I've come up with my own plan.
For the next 6 months I want to drop weight (I'm now 185). In fact I'm taking a break off MA to do this. I want to drop 40 pounds (say 30 fat, 5, muscle, 5 water). I figure its impossible to just drop fat alone. I'll do this by doing a lot of cardio and 1 session of weights a week. That's down to 145.
Then after I get to my goal weight, I'll add in 2 sessions of weights a week to put on strength and maybe 10 lbs of muscle (bringing me to 155)
After this I'll spend the next 2 months doing anaerobic training while maintaining my new strength.
Two months after this I'll be working sprints 2x week while maintaining my anaerobic training, strength and aerobics.
Finally weighing 155 10 months from now I'll be ready for class again. This time doing only 1 workout for weights, 1 workout for aerobics, 1 workout for anaerbics, 1 workout for sprints, and 2 bjj classes a week. Although I'm doing less fat burning exercise I figure the volume of exercise will keep my weight in check.
I learned this all from "grapplearts" website, their strength and conditioning articles.
Myself i can't wait. I'm in no rush to get back to bjj. 10 months is a layoff but its ok. I'll come back a new fighting machine and find grappling students half my age in class much easier!
I'll look into Ross training too as another means to get this job done!
