Woman who lift

Platform_Heels

I pretty much do my own thing. My husband and I work out together and we work one muscle group per day and alternate legs and abs (although I haven't been doing legs as much because I've been training for a race and cycling pretty much takes care of that).

For example this week was:

Monday: Shoulders - 30 min run in the afternoon
Tuesday: Tri's/Ab's - 60 min bike in the afternoon
Wednesday - rest (not a typical rest day we just couldn't get to the gym)
Thursday: Bi's - 30 min run/50 min bike
Friday: Chest/Abs - 30 min run (if it's not raining out)

We use different equipment (when available) and do different exercises. Today for chest it's dumbbell work and single arm presses, and flies (incline and flat).

I like it. It works for me.

I'm doing New Rules of Lifting Supercharged. I love it! I've been weight training for more than 25 years, and I'm getting better results with this program than any I've used before. It may be a little too complicated for brand new lifters, as you have to put together your own workouts based on the guidelines in the book, but I highly recommend it for more experienced people!

I have been doing SL 5x5 for several months now. I have cut down to 3x5 and added some accessories for variety. I also lift at home and don't use a spotter. That being said I have had to do the roll of shame on the BP before.
