First time doing this, but I am going to set my goal at 3,500 calories! ** Note: This does not take into consideration calories burned from circuit training 5x5 three times a week. Strictly a cardio challenge! Monday - 786 calories burned (treadmill and elliptical) Tuesday - 265 calories burned (treadmill) Wednesday - rest…

While you many burn more on an empty stomach, you need some sort of food for energy. Maybe some whole wheat toast with peanut butter, oats, a protein shake, fruit, something that won't fill you up.

I am not sure on statistics involving working out in the morning, but even though it SUCKS to get up earlier than I have to....I feel much better throughout the day knowing that my workout is done. I work 7:30am - 5pm, so I would have to get up at 5am and leave the gym by 6:40am. Sounds terrible, but I feel much better…

Yes, I am not a beginner, I have been doing splits on and off for almost three years now, but wanted to switch to full-body or upper/lower body split. I have no hatred toward separating each muscle on a different day. I just wanted to change things up. I will incorporate some deadlifts and squats into my routine, and see…

There is a squat rack yes, mainly concerned about form though. I have done squats before, but seriously hurt my back a couple of years ago doing them (wrong obviously). I have watched numerous tutorials online, just need to muster up and do them.

I will add a 5x5 shoulder press to that. Wellbert, I am not too confident on doing free-standing squats so are hack squats okay?

I can't tell you how many times I've been told to increase the reps from trainers and it just didn't feel right. So if I light heavy at low reps and take in a caloric defecit, which I am doing, I should be good to go. I can mix in some dumbbells though, or is that frowned upon? Along with the squats, chin-ups, deadlifts…

Honestly, I have a hard time doing deadlifts and chin-ups. Is there a way I can have a fat cutting routine with weights...I know I should increase the reps.

Thank you, is their a routine within that post for an upper/lower body split?
