A weekly workout plan is an excellent option for those who want to maintain a consistent exercise routine. It typically involves working out four to six days a week, with each day dedicated to a different muscle group or exercise type.

Here's an example of a weekly workout plan:

Monday: Chest and triceps

Tuesday: Back and biceps

Wednesday: Rest day

Thursday: Shoulders and abs

Friday: Legs and glutes

Saturday: Cardio and core

Sunday: Rest day


Home workout plans

If you don't have access to a gym or prefer to work out at home, a home workout plan is an excellent option. It involves using bodyweight exercises, resistance bands, and dumbbells to work out at home.

Here's an example of workout routine at home:

Monday: Upper body (push-ups, tricep dips, dumbbell curls)

Tuesday: Lower body (lunges, squats, calf raises)

Wednesday: Rest day

Thursday: Full-body (burpees, mountain climbers, jumping jacks)

Friday: Core (plank, Russian twists, bicycle crunches)

Saturday: Cardio (jump rope, high knees, running in place)

Sunday: Rest day
