Hey guys needing a little help, I've been so demotivated the past month, so far I've lost around 14lbs, and got LOADS more to lose, my second workout plan had been so intense to get through it all take nearly 2 hours, I feel that's an awful lot of time to be spending in the gym, I need to be changing what I'm doing every day I'm there rather than the same workout every day!! Can anyone direct me on where I can find these types of workouts please.

    I start of either riding the bike, elliptical trainer, and just started adding the dreadmill. (hate it) for 20-30 minutes and then I work arms and abs every other day, and legs and different ab machines on the opposite days. usually there about 45 minutes to an hour. Add me as a friend if you like.

    I'm not sure about where to find workouts but maybe my plan can be of assistance. I never spend more than 45-60 minutes in the gym.

    10 min - warmup (fast walking on treadmill, fast cycling on stationary bike or elliptical)
    25 min - lifting (I spread my lifting over 3 days during the week. Day 1 - biceps, back and shoulders. Day 2- chest and triceps. Day 3 - legs)
    10-20 min - cardio - depending on how I'm feeling on a given day I'll do a slow walk, cycling or elliptical. Other days I do sprints on the treadmill... Leave it to your own preference

    Use bodybuilding.com for specific info and mostly just research from Google

    Thanks to you both
    I do everything on the one day that's probably my issue

    I do 9 minutes on cross trainer the pyramid challenge starting level 5 increasing by 5 every minute up to 25 then down 5 every minute
    I then do 15 mins hillwalk
    Then I row 2000 metres
    Then I cycle 3 miles I'm spending approitmatley 45mins on cardio

    then I move onto resistance spending just over 1hour
    5 sets 10 reps
    Shoulder press
    Chest press
    Lat pull down
    Leg press
    Squats
    Cable row
    Lunges
    Hip thrusts

    3 sets 10 reps
    Cable woodchop
    top
    middle
    bottom

    Think I need to find something where I'm working specific area on specific days

    If you're looking to Get through quickly, try HIIT or something similar. I agree with you, 2 hrs is a painful amount of time to spend in the gym.
