Mike Tyson's training program may or may not be for you. In fact, some bodybuilders don't like to run since it uses up nutrients and energy they want to save for building muscle. If you do both without a long rest in between you may end up losing muscle when you burn through the nutrients. There are body builders who do run, don't get me wrong. Running builds up muscle fiber in the legs, it just best to get a rest after your workout before you run.

As far as Mike's diet goes, the oatmeal is a good choice. The steak, if it is lean, is also good. The pasta? Well, there's mixed opinions about eating pasta, but you should definitely avoid pasta made from white flour. Whole wheat is a good carb for a body builder. According to the list provided he is missing essential fats. He should be consuming healthy, unsaturated fats like fatty fish, nuts, seeds, olive oil and flax seed oils. It's also been proven that eating 5 - 7 small meals throughout the day is a much better plan than just having three meals.

While his routing may have worked for "Iron Mike", you'll have to decided if Mike Tyson's training program is the best one for you.
