🏋️♀️ Exercise Plan: Burn Fat, Build Strength
1. Strength Training (4-5x/week)
✅ Goal: Preserve muscle, boost metabolism.
✅ Progressive Overload: Gradually increase weights/reps.
Day | Focus | Exercises (3-4 sets, 8-12 reps) |
---|---|---|
Day 1 | Lower Body Strength | Squats, Romanian Deadlifts, Lunges, Calf Raises |
Day 2 | Upper Body (Push) | Bench Press, Shoulder Press, Triceps Dips, Lateral Raises |
Day 3 | Lower Body (Glutes/Hams) | Hip Thrusts, Bulgarian Split Squats, Hamstring Curls, Step-Ups |
Day 4 | Upper Body (Pull) | Lat Pulldown, Bent-Over Rows, Bicep Curls, Face Pulls |

🔹 Progression Tips:
- Increase weight by 2.5-5% weekly if form allows.
