    workout dilemma

    hey guys i have a bit of a unique problem. for the next 7 weeks due to my work in the military i will only be able to workout from friday night till sunday night so i'm looking to do 2 workout sessions in that time, also during the week my diet will be somewhat out of my control but i plan to suppliment this with tuna and protein bars. Anyway does anyone have some ideas for a workout schedule which i can fit into this time slot? i have a few ideas but i thought i would bounce the idea around the board

    you could try a 3 day split.

    work like legs and back, arms and shoulders, chest and abs

    you will want to rearrange but that way your not in the gym for a huge amount of time and still hit everything you need to.

    BUMP for more

    Well... looks like you are Intermediate to Advanced. I would say working on those compound movements will be the best thing right now 4 you. After 7 weeks of that you should be ready for a week off and then back to POF training.

    Yeah, workout those three days.
    Maybe do some hard 10 sets of 10 if short on time too instead of the traditional approach 4sets/3 exercises.
    Or do the push/pull system. Chest/Tris/Front Delts; Back/Bis/ Side& Rear Delts ; But do legs on one workout.
