Hello everyone. I have just joined the gym for a year and have been going regularly over the past 3 weeks, but i think i need some sort of plan made up for myself rather than turning up to the gym and decide what i want to do when i get there.
I am 20 years old and weigh roughly 11.5 - 12 st, and im 5ft 9inch. I am not the mucliest person and have fat i want rid of. My goal is to build up my body but also lose fat in the main areas (BUM, BELLY, CHEST). Also i want to become more fit, but also dont want to lose muscle. Wouldnt really want to be any heavier than 12.5st-13st.
I will be going to the gym on a monday/wednesday/friday and maybe some saturdays all at roughly 2.30-3pm for (2weeks) and monday/wednesday/friday and maybe some saturdays all at roughly 9-10am for (1 week) due to the shift patterns i work.
Could someone suggest a work/training plan so i can achive my above goals.
Also after i have been weight training for 45mins i have been on the cross trainer for 30mins keeping my heart rate at 130 to lose fat. I have been told that if it went above 150 i would also lose muscle (which i dont want to do) in which case i have stayed away from the treadmill, would you suggest me to use the treadmill @ 7.5mph jog, or will i lose muscle also?
And is it best to do cardio for 30mins after a weights session like im doing, or dedicate a day (saturday to say 30mins on tread mill, 30mins on bike, 30mins cross trainer) ????
If someone could write up or share a training plan that would be excellent as i dont want to be wasting my time with a crap plan.....
Also ive just bought some reflex instant whey which i have just started using, if that makes any difference.
Cheers everyone
