Anyone have a suggested plan, for say over 5 days?
I have BowFlex dumbbells so they go from 5 lbs to 52 lbs.
I want to start incorporating a whole body training split into my cardio.
Thanks in advance!!

I like strong curves. They have a beginners weights program as well as a beginners bodyweight program.2

Thanks! How long is each session/wprkout?0

I'd say with warmup and cool down - probably 45 minutes to an hour.
Here's a link to the templates:

It's a glute focused workout program. I'm starting Booty-ful Beginnings (the beginners program) on Monday and I edited my version to not include any of the cable machine work - as I don't have cables at home. I modified it to what works for me. Here's my version for weeks 1-4:

That's kinda hard to see - here it is in plain text:
WORKOUT A - Weeks 1-4
A1: Bodyweight glute bridge 3 sets, 10-20 reps
A2: One arm dumbbell row 3 sets, 8-12 reps (each)
B1: Bodyweight box squat 3 sets, 10-20 reps
B2: Barbell bench press 3 sets, 8-12 reps
Dumbbell Romanian deadlift 3 sets, 10-20 reps
Side lying abduction 1 set, 15-30 reps (each)
Front plank 1 set, 20-120 seconds
Side plank from knees 1 set, 20-60 seconds, each side
WORKOUT B - Weeks 1-4
A1: Bodyweight foot elevated single-leg glute bridge 3 sets, 10-20 reps
A2: Bent Over DB Row 3 sets, 8-12 reps (each)
B1: Bodyweight step up 3 sets, 10-20 reps (each)
B2: Seated dumbbell press 3 sets, 8-12 reps
Swiss ball bodyweight 45-degree back ext. 3 sets, 10-20 reps
Side lying clam 1 set, 15-30 reps (each)
Crunch 1 set, 15-30 reps
Side crunch 1 set, 15-30 (each)
WORKOUT C - Weeks 1-4
A1: Glute march 3 sets, 60 sec
A2: Bent over barbell row 3 sets, 8-12 reps
B1: Bodyweight parallel squat 3 sets, 10-20 reps
B2: Dumbbell incline press 3 sets, 8-12 reps
Bodyweight single-leg RDL 3 sets, 10-20 reps (each side)
Side lunges 1 set, 10-20 steps (each side)
RKC plank 1 set, 10-30 sec
Barbell Twist 1 set, 10 reps (each side)
*Note: Perform one set of A1, and immediately follow it with one set of A2. Rest 30-90 seconds and repeat until all sets are completed. Do the same for B1 and B2.
The book recommends doing 4 days a week - A, B, A, C - so that is what I plan to do.2 -
Thanks so much!!1

No problem! Let me know when you start (if you do) - I'm starting Monday 5/16 - I'd love an accountability buddy!1

Wooos right 4 days!!

I follow this one: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/rudy6.htm
Simple and quick full body program. I try to fit in 2-4 sets of each a day and just keep upping my weight as I go. Obviously it will eventually max out with dumbbells but then just going to add more sets / reps.5 -

Would this be a good place to start? Almost 2 years ago I was lifting everyday and adding in cardio. I was pregnant last year and I'm 9 months postpartum currently and still nursing my little one. Have yet to get back into lifting again. Other than this last 9 months and my pregnancy last year, I was lifting for a solid 2 years.0 -
Some great recommendations - http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10332083/which-lifting-program-is-the-best-for-you/p10
