Judo1979 Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 Just wondering if anyone knew of a good weight lifting routine for judo. I am a 23 year old male and I weigh around 205. I have judo workouts every Mon, Fri, and Sat Thanks 10th Gup White Belt HapkidoWhite Belt Judo
G95champ Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 There is a book sold in Century that is called something like Martial Arts and Weight Training. In the book it lists workouts for Karate, TKD, JUDO, and other forms of MA that focus on differant ideas. Its a book worth having for referance material for students but if you have any weight training exp. you can do without it. Being a football coach I have been arround a lot of good workouts. I have always seen that when people work hard it don't matter what lifts they do. On the flip side when they don't go so hard they don't get bigger or stronger. So to answer your question it really don't matter. However I would focus on the 2 big lifts that is a staple of every weight program Bench Press and Squats. (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."
