I'm VERY interested in how some pro athletes workout(mostly NFL players). Examples include: Adrian Peterson, LT, Shawn Merrimam, Reggie Bush, Kobe Bryant, etc. I've tried looking on youtube for some videos but i'm finding zilch. Does anybody know where I can find some information and videos?
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Men's health magazine is a pretty good source for this. They'll often have workout plans from professional athletes.
I know off the top of my head that A-Rod always works out at 6AM. And Johnny Damon does his running/jogging up steep hills and mountains.

Most of those programs are made up.
@TS why do you wanna know? Every pro athlete trains differently, because every pro athlete IS different. Think weaknesses, muscle imbalances etc. Your best bet would be to find some well-known trainers that train pro athletes and ask them.
These aren't NFL workouts but pro MMA workouts I've seen and like.

I'd go with the MMA workouts, more cut and less bulk. Plus the MMA body looks better than a NFL's body in my opinion.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Thanks for those videos. Notice the heavyweight fighters are the ones lifting weights, even light amounts and high reps. The lighter guys are doing mostly everything but traditional weights.
I tried to look up what bj penn does as a workout, since he kicked Sherk's ass. I found this video:

It's just running through mountains at high altitude and mat time. In the second video, you can see that those mats are wet with sweat. They roll a lot.
GSP kicked Penn's ass. He does lift a few weights.

Im thinking most here just wanna look good
NFL players and MMA fighters train for what they get paid to do. Speed, strength, endurance etc
I dont really care how fast I run the 40 meter dash. I just wanna look good at the beach .

Bud_2005: Pro athlete's work outs are specialized and tailored for their sport, their abilities and the results *they* want to achieve. Unless you're a clone of one, you shouldn't be trying to use their workout.
For instance, most heavy weights in MMA lift a lot. That doesn't mean that lifting a lot is necessarily the way to go for everyone. Fedor hasn't lifted iron in years, he just does bodyweight and still beats up on people.
If you're a beginner, you should do a basic workout that works for beginners. Once you're past the beginner stage, then you move on. Suddenly jumping on some random pro's workout isn't going to help achieve the best results you can.
Also, you gotta figure what your goal is. NBA players and NFL players have completely different goals when they train, and you wanna know how they all work out. The question is, what do you want to achieve?
