After 5 years of working out over the summer and getting burned out because I was doing too much, I think I’ve settled on a good workout plan that covers all muscle groups and shouldn’t take more than an hour a day. I hope I can keep it going!

Upper lower split, 4 times a week. Easy 1 hour per day with 3 rest days a week

3 days a week: Week 1: A, _, B, _, A; Week 2: B, _, A, _, B. Off days (including weekends) have no required activity, but generally I try to get 1-2 of cardio, core & misc. strength, mobility on at least 2 rest days. Main workouts (A & B) focus exclusively on compound lifts, only doing isos at the end if for some reason I want to. This way I save mental energy on deciding what to do & prioritizing functional strength.

Main goals are building functional strength and improving cardiovascular health. Not prioritizing aesthetics whatsoever because I find that goal often sets myself for disappointment especially as a tall guy. Number go up motivates me the most in addition to knowing I don’t have to be a slacker when doing physical labor

I hope it works for you! Just be aware that I am just starting out with this (today was day 1 of this plan) so idk how well it’ll actually work but it’s the most confident I’ve felt about a plan so far since it seems to be the most efficient in time and brainpower to meet the goals I’ve defined for myself. I just need to stick with it and make sure I don’t hurt myself lol

No, #3 said 4 days, not me. However my program is set up to be easily changed to 2 (tuesday/thursday) or 4 days (mon,tue,thur,fri) a week.
