The Winter Blues…
GEEZ, I am so tired of winter already! Sound familiar? Ok, so I am in Houston, TX and we don’t typically have much of a winter here ANYWAY but this year, mother nature came late! So, now as we roll into February the climate is COLD, the gym is PACKED and I am finding it harder and harder to stay focused on the **PRIZE** which of course is a hot bod by the time hubby comes home. NOT to mention the great health benefits I get from being lean.
I have not taken any new pics lately due to the fact that right now I am in *hibernation* mode.. Meaning I have a BIG suprise in store and I don’t want to spoil it! So as of now I am on a 4 day split, working legs, chest and shoulders 2X a week (I won’t be able to lift or do chest work for at least a month after Feb. 26th- hint hint!).
So, I have a NEW 4 day split that goes like this:
Day 1- Biceps/Triceps/Calves- no cardio- 3 to 4 exercises per body part
Day 2- Legs/Abs- cardio for 20 min- 4-5 exercises- focus on quads
Day 3- Chest/Shoulders/Calves- Cardio for 25 min- 3-4 exercises per body part- heavy focus on front and side delts
Day 4- Back/Abs/Calves-Cardio for 25 min- 4-5 exercises per body part
Day 5- Legs/Abs-Cardio for 20 min- 4-5 exercises- Focus on glutes
Day 6- Chest/Shoulders/Calves- Cardio for 20 min- 3-4 exercises per body part- focus on rear delts
Day 7- Cardio or rest
I am doing high sets (sets of 5) high reps (12, 15, 20, 20, 25 or failure) low weight for cutting…. You could do it with lower sets and reps for building too!
Anyway, pics are coming soon!!! Probably mid March or so.
See ya!
