STRENGTH TRAINING ROUTINE
Replies

cardio after lift is for fat cutting..your glycogen level is higher after lift...so you reach fat burns when you do cardio after lifts0

Just curious if there is a particular benefit to doing cardio immediately after your lifting or is this merely because you enjoy it?
I enjoy it but I am also doing it because I am cutting body fat. Once I start trying to gain weight I may cut back on it. I also like to do a lot of hiking and mountain biking and need pretty good cardio to enjoy those things.0 -
wowww I think I could almost be in heaven doing weight-lifting then going for a good jog...definately liking it :happy:0

Not sure if you read my comment stating that I have a beginner female friend who is doing this exact routine..
No I didn't. I'm happy for her, but not everyone will/should start off like that.
I still think thats alot for a beginner, I would think stronglifts or starting strength would be the much clearer and easier route to start off with. Not a brotastic 5 day split.
why are you being so obnoxious???
I happen to think these workouts look fantastic... you act like we are going to turn into competitive female body builders...UGH0 -

You can find some routines on bodybuilding.com
I usually split mine up like
Sunday: Back/bicep
Monday: Chest/tricep
Tuesday: Hamstrings
Wednesday:Shoulders/abs
Thursday: Arms
Friday: Quads
Saturday: Rest
When I first started weights I was doing two upper body and two lower body days a week.0 -
Not to offend anyone (as I'm not sure what is going on, and who is saying what, since people aren't quoting correctly) but I'm guessing that this woman does not train naturally. Additionally, that is not the desired physique of your average female weight liter.0 -
Additionally, it's a good idea for true beginners to strength training to start with an simple basic full body program consisting of compound lifts 2-3 times a week. The compound lifts establish a nice base strength hitting all the major muscle groups. Once you've done this for a while (maybe even a year or more) then she might want to start adding in isolation moves to really focus on developing individual muscles.0

This ia all I was trying to say. Basic lifts, works everything, smarter and safer for some asking for a beginner routine. The female picture was to show that women can be strong as well, not just men. Though she prob is not doing it naturally, regardless.0 -

I've never met you or anything but it seems to me "you must be that dude with his head up his *kitten* all the time" because that's definitely what you're portraying right now...0 -
Day 1- Upper body - Back, Shoulders, Chest, Arms, Abs
Day 2- Abs, Cardio
Day 3- Lower Body - Gluets, Hammies, Quads, Calvs, Abs
Day 4 - Abs, Cardio
Day 5- Repeat Day 1
Day 6- Abs, Cardio
Day 7- REST
Pick up next week starting with Lower body.
Rinse Repeat
I don't recommend Abs on consecutive days. They're just like any other muscle, don't work them every day.0 -
