The templar knights, the hospitalers, the teutons, generally the members of the military orders in the middle ages were refered to as warrior monks.

Monks in todays modern world do alot of things the old fashioned way. They start there day off early, waking up at around 4-5a.m. The first thing they do is pray. They usually pray 3000-5000 times a day (prayers only last around 20seconds). Some monks will work while others will train in Shaolin, a very brutal fighting technique. They cannot eat after 12p.m. unless it is offered by a higher ranked monk. Those are the basics. If youd like to learn more research it :)
