Training 5 times a week to burn fat
Found a training program from an article in IRONMAN.
Its a basic training program to lose weight based on a 12 week span.
Training is from Monday to Friday working each muscle once a week and with no more then 5 sets each.
Cardio work is 3 times a week minimun but nothing intense, the usual 30 minutes at 65% heart rate to burn body fat.
Exercice are
bench press
incline smith machine press
leg curls
stiff legged deadlifts
lat pulldown
close grip pulldown
t-bar
barbell press
lateral raise
bent raise
tricep pushdown
barbell shrug
leg press
hack squat
crunches
Personnal note is that i have back pains and also want to use this training for rehab, along with this i am gonna do a lot of streching and posture ajustement.
Is that any good, i am not using steroids , but i am taking whey protein, and eating a very clean diet.
Thanks guys.

Reps are between 8 and 20 depending on the muscle group, legs are higher in the 15 to 20 reps scheme.
Back and chest is 8-15.
I don't wanna gain mass, i just wanna lose some weight, love handles.

Dont know about all that, but from experience I can offer the tried and tested cardio method.
3 times a week, 225 - age x .7 for 40 minute. Have been doing it for two weeks with no weight in between at present. Lost 7 pounds and no muscle mass what so ever.
No AS. no ECA, just diet and cardio bro, best thing IMO.

taiboxa i got to figure this thing out, this will be on Thursday cause i meet with the physio, and i will bring everything to him and see what i can and what i can't do.
I would love to train 5 times a week and really split the muscles on 5 days say
chest and hamstrings
back, abs
shoulder traps
Quads
Biceps
Nothing much has i said around 5-6 sets per bodypart and add 40 minutes of cardio 3 times a week will be quit enought to lose maybe 15-20 pounds.
I am 5 feet 10 right now and 203 pounds with lovehandles and gut.

i would SERIOUSLY reccomend keeping legs all together since you utilize both ham/quads in almost every compound motion that is beneficial for leg development.

Sadly i cannot do lots of compound and might not be able to do anymore til i die if i dont ever cure this damn lower back injury, it takes time lots of time, my muscles in the back spam a lot i have been to a lot of so called professionals and for the most part it did nothing.
I would really love to get back into martial arts myself and get in great shape but still i am so limited with the pain and spams.
I have started streching a lot and doing Yoga sessions to see if it will help.
