With packed gyms and boredom from other workouts, the RushFit Program is a great alternative to help you get in some cardio and get into the best shape you have ever been. Here’s how the GSP workout schedule looks like:
The program is structured with 3 main levels of difficulty: beginning, intermediate, and advanced. Now keep in mind that this Rush Fit thing was developed by UFC champ Georges St. Pierre and one of his coaches. So even the beginner level is going to be pretty intense. In fact you should start there and build your way up unless you are already in fighting shape, in which case you should just go to the advanced trainings if you’re up for it. I’m just saying that each DVD is labeled as: five high intensity round circuits.
Basically, there are 3 main training calendars for each level of difficulty.
Rush fit beginner workout schedule:
First Day: You do Strength and Endurance Workout
Second Day: Do Cardio Session
Third Day: You do Abdominal Strength and Core Conditioning Workout
Fourth Day: Cardio and Flexibility Workouts
Fifth Day: You do Fighting Conditioning Workout
Sixth Day: Cardio and Balance and Agility Workouts
Seventh Day: Take this day off for Pete’s Sake
The workouts generally take about 45 minutes per day due to the whole “train smart” concept. Where you can hit everything you need to hit in the most efficient time as possible. However, they certainly are more intense than your average workouts.

Getting into more detail: Each session usually begins with a ten minute warm up followed by 5 high intensity five minute circuits, and then the ten minute cool down. This five minute concept comes from the fighting inside the octagon idea, so you can get a feel for what its like to go 5 minute rounds, at least a rough idea.
If you’re into MMA whatsoever you should enjoy the fighting workout so you get down like that. You may also like the fighting workout if you are a fan of kickboxing classes or other similar type of workouts. You definitely get that good feeling that you usually get from doing this type of workout. It has something to do with “endorphins” being released in your body and all that kind of things, but I’m not a scientist nor do a play one on TV so I won’t give you a biology lecture.
In general, you should feel more of a “burn” and get tired from the cardio workouts. You already know what that’s like. Some people actually do enjoy this. But whether you actually enjoy it or not, everyone always enjoys the feelings of greatness and accomplishment that come from finishing a workout. Especially, this champion inspired workout that is a reflection of the commitment of a great fighter and athlete.
The following weeks you perform this basic RushFit structure each week, and make little variations here and there, but for the most part this is what the GSP workout schedule boils down to. Just get yourself a pair of light dumbells, anywhere from 3 to 30 lbs, basically a weight that you will actually be able to lift over and over again. Hint: Rushfit is not as easy as you think.
