For the last couple of months I have been working a body part once every 7 days. But now I have decided to change it up and do a two days a week (Tues and Sat) full body routine (that way I work a body part once every 3-4 days).
The reason I am doing a two days a week full body workout is because I plan on returning to boxing training (which will be done on Mon, Weds, Fri). So Thurs and Sun will be completely off.
Here is the routine:
*2 days a week weightlifting routine (Tues, Sat) with a 3 minute rest between sets. I will be doing all exercises with reps of 8-10 keeping the same weight each set with a weight that I can do atleast 8 but can't do for more than 10. I will progress the weights when I can do all sets with 10 reps.
Tues. and Sat.
1. Flat dumbbell bench press 2x8-10
2. Overhand dumbbell rows to chest (to take lats out of it) 2x8-10
3. Hack squat machine 2x8-10
4. Incline dumbbell bench press 2x8-10
5. Wide grip lat pulldowns 2x8-10
6. Lying leg curls 2x8-10
7. Side dumbbell lateral raises 2x8-10
8. Tricep pushdowns 1x8-10
9. Seated dumbbell bicep curls 1x8-10
10. Standing calve raises 2x8-10
11. Weighted dumbbell crunches 2x8-10
Does the workout look solid? Anything I should change? Anything I should add? Anything I should delete? Instead of me doing the routine 2 days a week (Tues, Sat) would it be better if I did it 3 days a week (Tues, Thurs, Sat)? I don't want to overtrain but at the same time I want to get the most out of the routine.
