If you have a goal of just losing some weight and getting in better shape, but are confused about where to start when it comes to training. Follow this template.
Day 1 - push
Day 2 - pull
Day 3 - legs
Day 4 - rest
Do 4-5 exercises on each day. 2 big compound movements and 2-3 isolation movements for 8-10 reps making sure that you are challenging yourself with the weight.
Here’s an example day
Push day
For each movement :
3 working sets
8-19 reps each set
Bench press
Shoulder press
Side shoulder raise
Incline DB chest press
Tricep extension
