    What's your routine?

    Different day for each muscle group? Multiple muscle groups in one workout?

    I do lower body and upper body. But one of the trainers at the gym said this was not a great way to do things. So maybe I have to think about something else.

    Jills workout

    OK I do two upper body and two lower body over an 8-9 day cycle.

    For upper body I usually do 3 sets of each exercise and I choose two for each of the following in a typical workout"\:
    chest - bench press, incline bench press, db flyes, cable butterflies
    back - row, lat pulldown, db pullover, bent over row
    shoulder - Arnold press, straight db press, upright row, military press
    biceps - hammer curls, defining curls, supinating curls
    triceps - French press, db kickbacks, dips, tricep press on lat pulldown machine

    For lower body I do either :

    squats on Smith machine
    hamstring machine
    leg extension machine
    adduction machine
    abduction machine
    calf raises

    OR

    inverted leg presses in wide stance and pliet stance
    resistance bands for adduction and abduction
    step up and press ups with kettle bells
    deadlift

    and I do pushups every other day and cardio core strength training with all kinds of wacky equipment on my cardio days as a warm up.

    AND I STILL LOSE LESS THAN A POUND A WEEK!
