Alright, I'm pretty open and willing to take any considerations.

My diet is finally in check, and I have enough time to lift and cardio, I just need a plan.

Since I'm in the air force, we are required to do PT 2 times a week on Tuesdays/Thursdays. These workouts consist of about 80 pushups in sets, 40 situps, 40 scissor kicks, 20 crunches. Some stupid arm twirls for shoulders I guess, and psuedo lunges without any weights :whistle:

Then we have to do 30 minutes of cardio or close to it. When its nice outside, we have like a 3 mile course we run (self paced) but since it snows here all the time, it's mostly indoor exercise bike/treadmill

Okay. I get a decent abs workout during this workout, now here comes my questions.

I'm pretty much trying to figure out where to shove my normal workouts in. My weekend mornings are usually free, I just need what days you guys can recommend my tri/chest days and my back/bics days. I also would like to include a leg day either with one of those days or as a seperate day.

Any help? My goals are to maintain muscles and drop fat

:eat:

I would suggest that other people's suggestions will not be helpful. I offer three reasons.

1. People like different things -- I hate mornings. Cardio in the morning is a good thing -- but I just cannot bring myself to do it. Others find it easy to roll out of bed and get running. If someone suggested that to me, it would not work -- I'd probably laugh. However, I find it easy to do other things that others just can't seem to work into their schedule no matter how hard they try.

2. People have different bodies -- You must know your own body. This is mostly an experiment. You have to try different things -- set up a schedule for yourself and see what happens. If it works -- great! It probably will not work. So, adjust. Try something new. See if it works, keep perfecting and adjusting to get the results you want. This is different for everyone.

3. People have different goals -- what is your goal? To look good? To lose weight? To lose fat? To get a girl? To feel good physically? To feel good mentally? To feel good emotionally? To run a marathon? All of these would require different schedules. We have different goals.

With all that said, there are some general principles that apply to everyone who is interested in healthy living. There are some general principles that work for everyone. You must learn those principles and then start experimenting. What are those principles? Read around the forums, you'll get a feel for it.

It is much easier to offer suggestions on an already-existing schedule than one that does not exist. We can say, "Hey, have you thought about this idea? It worked for me."

Welcome to the forums, and keep us posted on your progress. Learn, learn, learn, read, read, read. Pretty soon, you'll be the one saying, "Hey, this worked for me when I was stuck in your place, you might try it."

Ah, I just really wanted suggestions on when would the best days be for doing the rest of my workouts. I figure I could do trics/chest/legs on saturday and maybe bics/back on wednesday or something. Its just had to get a schedule when you are forced to do a lot of pushups on tues/thurs which really sap the energy out of me

Sounds good to me. Give it a try. See what happens.

With a good diet and good cardio (as you say in first post), adding a good weight lifting routine should really bring everything together and you should start shedding fat quite steadily. You should see results in the first couple weeks, I'd say.

Sounds to me like you've got the dedication and motivation to reach your goals. :tu:
