Well at 36 your matabolism will be slower now than when u were younger......When I lost around 45lbs.(at age 30) I didn't do much cardio......I hit the weights 5 days per wk and started trying to get larger muscles.....larger muscles make u burn more calories thru-out the day........I also dropped almost all simple sugars(except for post workout shake) and saturated fats(espicially fried foods).......cut out all fast food places also........u should also consume 6-7 meals/calories per day(about every 2.5 hours), this will keep you metababolist burning all day......diet is going to be a big part of u getting back in the shape u are looking for.Originally Posted by TitansFan
As far as workouts go......here's my split:
chest/calves - mon
back/traps - tues
delts/calves - wed
quads/hams - thurs
bis/tris/forearms - fri
abs 3x per wk
Now as far as cardio.......I hate cardio....and like I said before I didn't and still don't do much cardio......I have added 10-12 minute cardio sessions 2x per wk(mon/thurs) after my workout on those days.....that's all I got on cardio.....told ya I hate it.....I get a cardio affect out of my weight lifting.
