Hello everyone, great to finally speak with you all. Due to severely, severely limited training constraints I am looking to hot everything - strength, conditioning/fat loss & hypertrophy in as little as 20 minutes a day.
It's literally all I have to train, time-wise. I have read S & S and loved it but don't have clearance to do TGUs due to back issues/chronic condition.
LCCJ have got the green light, though.
Can anyone recommend a routine to start with? I know you're all screaming 'GOOGLE!!!' at me but I would prefer to be pointed in the direction of a program by knowledgeable people like those who post here, rather than use one at random which will lead to disappiontmen.
Alternatively, I have been thinking that the following parameters could be used indefinitely, up to 6 times per week:
* Start off at 50 reps a in sets of no more than 10
* Aim to add 10 reps a day until up to 100 in total
* Then add 10 reps whenever you feel able to at little extra effort until up to 200 in total
* All sessions to be completed at a relatively easy 75% of effort - working hard but not to exhaust onsself. BUT DO push yourself all out for one sessions every 2 weeks, where you aim to complete the reps ASAP
* This is where I need guidance as to when it would be good to move up a bell size. Is managing to complete these 200 reps in 15 minutes too restrictive of strength, because it will take ages to reach that level? If so, is 200 in 20 minutes, or 150 in 15 minutes, more realistic? The latter
Are there any tweaks to this, (would aiming for 150 in 15 minutes be more realistic, for instance?) or the time period to complete the reps in?
Thanks in adavance for your guidance! :-D
