what is everyone's workout split, curious to see :)
I lift 5-6 x a week and do 20 min cardio after

    Lifting 5x per week, heavy first 2 days, rest, then 3 days of hypertrophy. Cardio comes in the form of football (soccer) once or twice per week.

    Powerlifting training 5x week. Cardio - depends if I'm currently cutting or bulking.

    I lift 4x a week (upper body on Monday/Thursday, legs and core on Tuesday/Friday). Cardio - run a mile on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and walk around a mile during lunch most weekdays.

    Do it! So fun! We have women at every level competing in my state. As long as you know how to squat, bench and deadlift, you can compete.

    Varies but on average 6 - 7hrs of cycling a week plus 3 strength training sessions.
    In peak cycling months my volume on the bike is higher and I do very little leg strength work.
    In winter the cycling volume drops but the intensity goes up and I do slightly more leg strength work.

    (At the moment my cycling volume has dropped and I'm primarily focussed on leg strength rehab work to recover from a knee injury and upper body strength work is limited by a shoulder injury. Goals change - training changes....)

    I run a bro-type split with a specific focus on strongman events. I don't do a Monday/Tue/Wed etc. Schedule because life can get in the way I just do day 1/2/3 etc. - In order no matter the day of the week. My training is actually bare bones simple at the moment.

    DAY 1: Shoulders- Log clean and presses, sledgehammer tire hits
    DAY 2: Arms/shoulder accessory lifts
    DAY 3: Back - Pull ups, deadlifts, bb rows, tire flips...maybe a few rope climbs if I'm froggy.
    Day 4: Chest - BB bench, incline db bench, cable flyes
    Day 5: Legs - Squats, farmers walks, sled pushes. Sometimes hamstring/calf accessories if I have time.


    I have no scheduled rest or cardio days - I just do them as needed. If I'm feeling like my lifts will be sub par or if I've lifted 3 days in a row at a high RPE I'll just get on my bike and ride 30-60 minutes that day. My rest days are taken when I'm just absolutely drained or something comes up that eats up too much time (I work 12 hour days and still have to do life stuff like meal prep/house chores/errands and what not so if something un-planned happens and I'm not going to get into the gym til after 730pm I typically just take the day off)

    I dont have specific days of the week but cycle something similar to
    1. Back (chin ups..usually with assist, different grips-narrow-wide,reverse, back rows, reverse pec deck)
    2. Shoulders (overhead press, upright row, raises lateral and front)
    3. chest (bench press, pec deck/flys) and bicep (curls)
    abs are thrown in every few workouts, or separately at home when I do stretching.
    cardio is thrown in a few times a week (jogging or elliptical)
    I rarely do weights 3 days in a row, so usually I get through a cycle every week.
