Brock Lesnar's intense workouts have changed over the years. He has been able to adapt to moving from collegiate wrestling, to pro wrestling, to the world of mixed martial arts and back to professional wrestling. When he was training for huge fights in the UFC, he would weight train twice a day four times a week and focus on grappling for two other days.

Upon his return to pro wrestling, he brought the training down a little because of his "part time" schedule. He also needed to focus more on his look than athletic MMA training.

Lesnar revealed to Muscle & Fitness magazine an intense back workout which you can use to jumpstart your training:

Exercise:Sets:Reps
Wide-Grip Pullup 5 10; Pullup 5 10; Narrow Grip Pullup 5 10; Weighted Pullup 1 20; Seated Cable Row 4 12; Bent Over Row 4 12; Barbell Curl 4 12; Deadlift 4 6

*Lesnar wears a weighted belt with a 45-pound plate. He gives himself three minutes to perform 20 total reps.
