Strength training question

Hi all,

I am following the following program recommended to me by helloitsdan. I have weights at the gym at my work so I can only work out during the day mon-friday. I am going to follow this program Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and stick to my c25k program on Tues, Thurs and Saturday or Sunday

http://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/dumbbell-only-home-or-gym-fullbody-workout.html

By following that, what do I do if I can't make it a day, say this Wednesday for example I have a hair appt after work so I can't work out then, and I don't really want to work out before work as I get a really red face like a tomato that takes a long time to return to normal. Not cool for a receptionist.

I know you shouldn't work out two days in a row, so I am stuck as to what I can do to maintain my program, while not feeling so restricted.

Thanks,

Amber

    Really if you have to miss a day, then you probably just skip it and wait until Friday. Personally I would try to schedule around those workouts seeing as you can run just about anywhere, but need the gym for your strength training routine.

    Missing one workout wont really stall your progress but its best not to make it a regular thing.

    If it's once in a while, skip it. Or you can move wednesday's workout to friday, friday to monday, etc. Or, you can adjust your workout routine that week, and lift different body parts 2 days in a row, thurs and friday. For example, upper body thursday, legs friday.
