Notes:
  • This is high-volume training, so work your way up to this. Cut the distance for the run and the time for the exercises in half or more if you need to. 
  • The intensity of these exercises and what you will do during each session will obviously vary, so pay attention to how your body feels and train accordingly. If your arms or legs are so sore you can't do anything, either go extremely easy on them or train something else entirely. 
That's all for today! Until next time, good luck and train hard!

Another awesome workout dude. I especially love your stuff on boxing and karate so reading the Shiba specials was a real treat. Any chance there's another Sendou routine on the horizon anytime soon? Curious to see what your take on Orochi Katsumi from Grappler Baki would be. Your Doppo workout was awesome but junior's style is a tad different from his old man's.

Absolutely!! I'd love to do a workout for Katsumi, but I'll need to do a little research, so it's not too similar to Doppo's training.

How about a routine for Hayami Mashiba Ricardo or Vorg from ippo or maybe a workout based on Joe or José mendoza from Ashita no Joe
