Description

Note - Please be sure to warm up for 5-10 minutes cardiovascular prior to weight training. Also, warm up for several sets prior to your working sets. Failure should be reached at the end of every working set. To complete another full repetition should be near impossible due to muscle fatigue. Conduct 20 minutes of cardio every day. On the below listed training programs I have outlined the schedule of weight training on three days throughout a seven schedule. It doesn’t matter what days your weight training falls on, I only ask that you leave at least a day of rest in between every training day to fully recover the worked muscle. For example, some people like to train on Monday, Wednesday and Friday whilst others Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. You choose day 1, day 2 and day 3 to fit the schedule that you are more likely to adhere to with minimal daily disruption.
