Full body training program

[Rocco32]

Hey everyone, hello again For those that know me, I've been away for awhile. Things are going well, quitting my job in Aug to finish school (actually finished last semester!!) Sold my Mustang Convertable and bought a motorcycle and I'm turning 30 in a few weeks!!!! Not to mention a new tattoo

Anyway, I just want some help with putting together a full body training program. I'm working nights and days within the same week so I can make myself get to the gym coherently about 3 x a week if I'm lucky. I looked over the training stickies by P-funk and Cow but those that know me know I can never decide anything without second guessing it unless someone tells me what to do

I'm looking for exercises that utilize the Olympic lifts and more full body movements if that makes sense. I'm looking to preserve muscle and stay healthy and moveable until I quit my job and can devote more time to the gym once more. I'm also running outside about 2-3 times a week. Any help'd be awesome.

Thanks man. They are doing really good. Little guy is 9 months old now. Growing like a weed. Time flies.

Hows things with you? Why you working? I thought the wife was going to support you going back to school?

 

[Rocco32]

Wow, time does fly! I went back to work for just a few months for some extra cash for college and ended up being there 9 months...we got comfortable with money again and spending since I had my job back We'll be in an bit of debt when I quit but the cycle has to end somewhere and I NEED to finish my degrees.

Welcome back.

I've been doing a series of FB routines for the past year. Pop in my journal for some ideas. Almost all exercises are compounds.

Cool, thanks YM. I checked out your journal, good stuff. I think I found a nice split from T-nation I'm going to go with.

Kinda disappointed this was all the responses I got, but I guess that's what happens when you leave and come back. Thanks guys for your advice, I do appreciate it.

there are a lot of ways you can approach it.....total body can be pretty versatlie and has lots of possibilities...that is why I love it so much.

 

[Rocco32]

Thanks Patrick. I think I'm going with a Push/Pull, Heavy/Light program. It's TC's newest on T-nation. It'll be something new for me.

So when do the workouts start?

 

[Rocco32]

Might be about a month. I'm quitting my job in two weeks and going to Alaska for two weeks. Don't know whether to start before Alaska or not.

Hey there Hee, are you in VA now? Where?

Going to Alaska for an Arts Conference. I'll be taking a creative writing class for two weeks and hopefully a dance class. So how the hell are you? What's going on?

Yup, in VA for now. Just outside of Danville. Got lots of family here, checking out the work situation, deciding whether to stay here or not, but I do like it here!
