Workouts That Work

Weeks 3 - 5 1/2
2 Way Split Workout

Phase two splits your workouts, dividing your body parts into two seperate groups. Perform the appropriate workout on prescribed days.

Days 1 - 5 - 9 - 13 - 17 - 21 Abs - Chest - Shoulders - Triceps

Days 3 - 7 - 11 - 15 - 19 - 23 Legs - Back - Biceps - Forearms
On even numbered days do 40 - 60 minutes of cardio, (I suggest jogging or bicycling, but that's just me).

During this phase you will still perform one set per exercise for all exercises.
