Current Status:
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 153
Bodyfat: 18%
Age:26
Nutrition: Protein-30%, Carb-40%, Fats-30%
Equipment: 10lb. pair of Clubbells, CST Book and Video.
Experience: Tae Kwoon Do 3.5 years (long time ago), MMA (more recently, but discontinued due to funds and time constraints) some bodyweight exercises (Hindu Push-ups, and Squats and Handstand Holds)
Flexibility: Poor (especially in the hip, glute, hamstring areas, victim of desk jockey and lack of motivation syndrome)

Goals:
Bodyfat:7%
10 lbs. of muscle added to current frame.
Time period: 16 weeks
Extreme functional strength and flexibility
Increased coordination and agility

First of all, are my goals too diverse or contradictory?

I want to integrate something else into my practice to round it out. My plan is to do CST I know I need range of motion and ankle/knee/leg balance, stability help. It seems a good idea to incorporate the post "15 minutes to spring steel legs." My funds are limited, so my question is should I start with the Warrior Wellness for Beginners or should I start with the beginning Z-Health tape? I have read up on both, and I am still unclear as to where I should start.

My idea was to start out with CST with Clubbells 3 times per week and do bodyweight or biomechanical exercise on the off days, resting on Sunday. From what I understand biomechanical exercise is more about refinement of movement, whereas bodyweight exercise is more for strength endurance.

Thanks in advance everyone for replies, insights, and willingness to help!
