Thread: 2 day a week training question

Because of work and the fact that I have to cycle to work I am only able to fit in 2 lifting sessions a week. So what I have been doing is
Mondays:
Bench
Shoulder Press
Deads
GHR

Fridays
Squat
Lunges
Pullup
DB Row

I've been doing all of them 5x3

I must also mention that I am on a calorie deficit! Is this realistic program to stick to until I reach my goal weight? I have been making strength progress on all lifts bar Bench and Shoulder press (don't know why I've stalled).

Cheers

I would actually do fullbody workouts if you are only doing twice a week. Also, I wouldn't do 5x3 on all exercises. I would do something like

Day 1
1) Squat - 5x3-5
2a) OH press - 3x6-8
2b) 1-arm DB row - 3x6-8
3a) GHR - 3x10-12
3b) Ab roll outs - 3x10-12

Day 2
1) Bench - 5x3-5
2a) RDL - 3x6-8
2b) Chin up - 3x6-8
3a) Lunge - 3x10-12
3b) Supine rows - 3x10-12

Quick and dirty. Get in and get out!
