Just starting back into it, unlike last time where I was trying to build up muscle and loose weight I am going to attack this differently now. I put myself on the weight loss tone plan and I am going to follow it though, then worry about building up. I have downloaded 15 pages of recipes :-) So I am set their. Few questions on my plan. It has no mention of doing Squats! When I was in my fittest days I did them all the time. Will tossing in 3 sets of squats effect my weight loss at all? IMO it should help if any. And putting them on the LAG/CALVE day I would think should be best.
Also for now I picked a 3 day split.
day 1 - back chest calves
rest
day 2 - shoulder, bicep, tricep
rest
day 3 - lags, calves (it had me resting two days before day two, but with my work sched.... i changed it)
I run on rest days also. But is three days a week a good enough split to be productive to get stronger and loose weight? Anyhow I am sure I will have more dumb questions as I go along, but I think this is a MUCH better start then last go around. But these forums have always been steller for help!
Cheers,
JOHN
