2day split?
im a beginer/intermediate - easy gainer but havent worked out for a month due to injury and im feeling fat. want to get my muscles harder too.
i play soccer on friday's swimm on wednesdays so want to fit in a weights regime around that. im looking to loose fat mainly so would a 2day split make sense? i want to get day 1: bench press incline Bench press dumbell fly hammer curl barbell curl reverse curl tricep extension upright rows bent over rows shrug day 2: squats leg curls leg extensions Straigt leg deadlift lateral raise front raise rowing arnold press crunch & twist split 1 - mon, thu split 2 - sun, tue swimming or squash - wed soccer - fri 7mile hill run - sat does this look alright? is it right doing a 2 day split twice a week or should i do more running? i was also thinking about doing some sprints one night instead maybe? any help would be very much appreciated! also would a 3 day split be better? iv not lifted for about 4weeks due to injury so i want to make sure when i start back my regieme is spot on.

A 2 day split is totally viable. If you choose to workout 2 days per week, then I think a full body routine would be preferable. Even if you were to perform a 3 day split, I think full body routines are great. Also, since your goal is fat loss, then you could do a full body routine circuit training style to accelerate the process. Check out my template for designing one:

You could also try a week of bodyweight exercises followed by a week with light weights, or something like that. If bodyweight exercises offer significant enough resistance, then it would be worth it. |
