Tom Brady Workout Training Diet Routine- NFL Football Exercises and Weightlifting Conditioning

Great workout routine. However, an hour of cardio almost every single day? Isn't that over-training?

Brady - 3

Great workout routine.

Maybe, if they actually posted it.

All it says is he lifts weights 4 times a week and does cardio.

Not necessarily.

1) Your body will adapt to any stress/stimulus that it is used to feeling consistently

2) I'm sure he modifies and changes the intensity or type of cardiovascular activity each session which 'shocks' and refreshes the body.

If anything, I'd worry that the amount of cardio he does taking away from his muscle mass and maximal strength, but I'm sure his strength coach has given him proper guidelines, and Brady could care less about maximal strength at this point in his career as a QB. His training would be geared towards injury prevention and maintaining suitable 'NFL' strength/condition.

An hour of cardio a day is fine, depending on what else you're doing. For what he needs as a QB, it's definitely fine.

Not if you train at different levels of intensity: endurance, interval, recovery lactate threshold and so on. All are based on an individuals thresholds and percentage of max heart rate.

Brady gets at least an hour a day cardio on the Gisele-a-tron.....I'm just saying.....

I heard McNabb's personal trainer is Rex Ryan

It'd be a marathon everyday for me....

Mark Sanchez benches more than Brady....

Anyone know where I can pick up one of these Gisele-A-trons.


Sounds intriguing.

He also does 40-60 minutes of cardio six days per week in order to improve his conditioning.

That's nothing. Good for you, but there's no problem with some type of cardio every day and he takes a day off.

Weight training is different.

 

[Nordberg]

An hour of cardio is fine. If anything it's not enough. Your body isn't going to reach it's peak cardio conditioning based on 60 minutes of cardio a day.

Doing cardio for an hour or longer is old school. Its more effective to do shorter periods of HIIT.

Also, this article is old and was posted/discussed on here before.

It'd be a sprint for me...

 

[MoLewisrocks]

Whatever...it's one more opportunity for knowledgeable Patsfans to critique what the GOAT does or doesn't do enough or too much of...while incorporating the requisite Gisele zinger...LOL

This place and a few others like it are what leads some mediots to conclude that Brady isn't as beloved in the region as you'd expect a guy who has delivered what he has to be... They don't understand that that speaks more to the natural inclination of the regions fanbase (exacerbated by the longstanding nature of it's elitist media) to equate criticism with objectivity than it does with the QB... We don't just love 'em here, we're better/smarter than that...LOL

This

20 mins HIIT 3 x's a week would be far better for a QB, plus general situational work like feet driils, short sprints etc. Long steady state cardio just catabolises muscle

That and a proper split day weights program

 

[RayClay]

It'd be a sprint for me...

:woohoo:

If you get proper nutrition,calories, protein and rest you won't overtrain. Everyone's body is different.


the cardio is fine... BUT if one is trying to bulk up (Bad idea), which Brady is not doing then cardio is FINE
