Hi, I'd appreciate your help on a training plan...
I don't work for a living and have all the time in the world, so I am looking a decent full time training plan.
Currently I am cycling 20 miles a day Mon to Fri (Mornings) and running 5 miles Mon, Tue, Thur & Fri (Nights) but I want to start Weight Training.
I was planning on going to the gym after my cycle 4 times a week, but I'm starting to think it might be better going for a run instead and going to the gym at night as that will give my legs more recovery time.
I'll only be working on upper body in the gym as I think cycling is enough exercise for them, I have made a plan up and would like your thoughts.
Day 1. Cycle 20m (Morning) Gym, Chest, Shoulders and Abs (Midday) Run 5 miles (night)
Day 2. Cycle 20m (Morning) Gym, Back (Midday) Run 5 miles (night)
Day 3. Leisurely round of Golf
Day 4. Cycle 20m (Morning) Gym, Shoulders and Abs (Midday) Run 5 miles (night)
Day 5. Cycle 20m (Morning) Gym, Arms (Midday) Run 5 miles (night)
Day 6. Golf
Day 7. Golf
I don't want to put too much muscle on as I need to keep flexible as I enjoy playing golf to a decent standard.
Is this too much? Like I say I have nothing to do all week and I'd like to keep myself busy!
Any thoughts appreciated....
Thanks
Hawko
