A New Workout Plan...

 So after months of back issues, needing better time management and getting ready to work a lot more hours on a lot more days I decided that it was time for a whole new workout plan!

While I adore my Home push/pull/legs/abs workout I have no time to get it all done and even if I could get in 4 days a week I'd still be only working each body part once a week so I decided to take the entire thing and turn it into an Upper Body/Lower Body workout. This way if I can get in 4 days a week I'd be working each body part twice a week and that's a great start.

It took several days but I finally have it planned out and organized. It's runs on Upper Body/Lower Body A-G and I cut out all extra filler exercises and kept everything important: for example, I kept the basic overhead shoulder raise but cut out the one-arm one, things like that. I also cut out most exercises that have me bent over for the duration of the sets because I need to be very careful with my back right now.

I'm unsure on cardio with the weight training at this point because I don't know how much time I'll have but I'm hoping for 2 cardio days and 4 weight-training days a week (with yoga for the stretch/cool-down) and I'll be thrilled if I can make that happen. And since it's been months since I've had a decent workout I'm definitely starting out slowly and carefully!

Right now my back is mostly okay so I plan to start at the end of this week and see how it goes and, of course, I'll be making blog and Instagram posts about my workout days when I do them!
