I'm doing this program 3-4 days/week, but I'll need some other training progam - it's too time expensive. In January/February I'll just have time during the weekends.

Would be great if anyone has an idea, how I can keep up my state during these two months.

During the weekends, I'll have maaaaaany time, so i can have a big program

My first workout with more weights and less reps was very chaotic. I don't know if my workout plan is good!? I hope you'll help me a little bit to get a better one.

This was day 1, day 2 I thought I'll do the stomach and back, day 3 legs(?) I don't know...

If you work out Sat, Sun, plus one other day (even for 45 min), you should be fine.

You can follow a 3 split and see good results.

Are you sipping on some water during the cardio? I use to do an hour without drinking water and I'd find that by the last 15 mins my tongue would be dry.

 

When I've started with cardio, I drank some water every 20min, but for 3-4 weeks, I don't. Just directly after the cardio... then much of it

I think that I generally need less water during training than when i started my "career" in the gym...

 

But I think you shouldn't save on water... drink a bit after 30 min. probably the body learns to arrange by-and-by...

Today I had my "finish" training... just called it so, because I've now about 7 days gym-holidays, and so I made a "hard" workout today (cardio)...

Bent Over Triceps Extension: 10x75.8, 7x75.8, 2x11x46.8

 

1h5m Cardio (Treadmill) - 10km: first 40 min at 10kmh then went down to 9...8 kmh.. was really hard...

 

I think this workout was really good, my biceps is burning a little bit and I'm proud of my jogging today and the hours of cardio since last week. Now I'll have a break for 7 days or something (just can do pushups or sth.)...

 

I don't know, if I had mentioned it, but I've attended in a competition in our gym..."who kills most cals" (4th and 5th Dec), and I was the ONLY participator .... so I've won this stupid shit and now will get 3 times personal training (a 30 minutes). That's really cool, so I can become acquainted with the rest of the machines and stuff.

For Log: I've done Cross Trainer in the competition: 1,5h + 1h at day 1 and (I think) 1h at day 2, that are 3,5h aka 2100 cals.

 

Wish you merry xmas
