Training

How is your training split set up? Do you focus on training each muscle group once weekly? How many days weekly do you train?

Train until I die…LOL

I try to do a split, but there are days where Im not feeling a certain body part…like seriously I cant feel it its so sore! LOL

Monday - Leg/Abs
Tuesday - Chest/Bi/Tri/Cardio
Wednesday - Back/Abs
Thursday - Legs/Chest/bi/Tri/Cardio
Friday - Back/Abs
Saturday - Legs/Abs/Cardio
Sunday - Free day, usually what I feel like that day

Thank you all for sharing thus far! I should have my new plan written down by Sunday. Starting a 16week cycle soon.

I always mix my resistance training (free weights only) with bodyweight circuits.

LEG DAYS

Warmup:

• 5 min Foam roll exercises
• 5 min Bio-Energetics warm up

Then do exercises below for 3 times:

• Dumbbell Lunges x 10 reps @ 15lbs each side
• Front Squats x 10 reps @ 40lbs
• Single Leg Squats x 10 reps each side @ 15lb dumbbells on each hand
• Donkey kicks @ 40 reps each side
• Single leg curls on stability ball @ 10 reps each side
• Jump Lunges @ 10 reps each side
• Jump Squats @ 10 reps

Finish:

• Stability Ball Tucks and Pike x 10 reps @ 2-3 sets
• Stability Ball Crunches x 30 reps
• Stretch

UPPER BODY DAYS

(same warm-up and finish)

I do exercises below 3 times:

• Front squats x 10 reps @ 40lbs
• Overhead press x 10 reps @ 15lbs each side
• Front arm raises x 10 reps both arms at the same time @ 10lbs each side
• Burpees @ 20 reps
• Jump squats @ 10 reps
• Twist jumps @ 20 reps
• Line sprints @ 20 seconds
• Push up variations (one-legged, staggered, rotational, pull one leg in, etc) @ 10 reps

I hope to be at a gym soon so there’s more variety and heavier weights. But in the meantime I just add challenges by doing negative reps, different bodyweight exercises and adding more weights.

I’m not working on my arms and back too often right now because I really want to focus on reducing size around mid-section and thighs.
