Settling In

Well, I'm a couple of weeks in now. The soreness is on the decline and these aging joints are not protesting too much yet.

I'm settling in on a three-day split. I've tried countless training schedules in the past and I always keep coming back to some variation of the three-day split. This time around, it looks something like this;

Day 1; Push (Chest, Triceps, Shoulders, Cardio)

Day 2; Legs (Squats, Leg Press, Stiff Legged Deadlift, Leg Curls, Calves)

Day 3; Pull (Pulldowns, Row or Dumbbell Row, Body Rows on Suspension Device, Bicep Work)

Day 4; "Rest" with Cardio and Rotator Cuff Work, Foam Rolling, Other Corrective Stuff, etc.

I do the above and then on Day 5, I start all over again. There are no total rest days planned, since life and other interruptions come up often enough as it is.
