Strength Training is one of the best ways to assure optimal health leading into your older years. It prevents injury and helps slowing the aging process. As an active strength trainer myself, I have noticed results and simply do not feel any older.
Overall, working out four days a week can lead to significant improvements in both physical and mental health, provided the workouts are well-structured and balanced with adequate rest and nutrition.
Before starting your workout, it is great to stretch and do some light cardio to warm your muscles - about 10 minutes
Here is a routine I follow each week:
- Day 1 - Legs, Calves and Biceps
- Day 2 - Chest, Triceps and Abs
- Day 3 - Cardio - Planks & Jumping jacks
- Day 4 - Back, Biceps and Calves
- Day 5 - Shoulders, Triceps and Abs
The king of all exercises for each is as follows:
- Legs - Squats or Leg Press
- Chest - Barbell and Dumbbell Presses
- Back - Deadlifts or Barbell/ Dumbbells Rows
- Shoulders - Shoulder Press - Barbell or Dumbbells
The key is to do one of the above exercises on a regular basis.
For your cool down, go for a walk and do some stretches.
