WORKOUT SCHEDULE FOR THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 5th

Workout Schedules | October 05, 2015

WorkoutScheduleOctober5

About the workout schedule

One of my workouts a day is good enough to improve your health and fitness, and get real visible results. If you’re super motivated to get super fast results, you can do the second suggested workout in this schedule, but caution should be taken to ensure that you’re not regressing by draining your energy too much.

That said, let me give you a few tips:

1. Don’t do 2 high intensity workouts back to back. It’s going to be way more effective if you do each of them with fresh energy, so take at least a few hours in between them. If you’re fresh and strong for each workout, you’ll be able to push yourself harder and thus burn more calories and contract your muscles better. The only exception is Power Yoga. You can do PoYo after any workout since it’s an aerobic based routine focused mainly on stretching and core work.

2. Support your training with proper diet. Read through my Nutrition Guide to get the idea.

3. Track your progress. Always write down your score for every workout. If you see that you’re not beating your personal bests for routines you’ve done in the past, the chances are you’re overtraining yourself instead of getting stronger. If you’re getting fitter, stronger, and faster, it’s going to reflect on your body so keeping track of your times and reps is really important. You should also take measurements with a tape measure, and before and after pictures. Weighing yourself won’t tell you much unless you can track your body fat % which is not easy to do accurately at home.

I’m posting new workouts at midnight (PST -8) Los Angeles time zone, before the day starts. You can find this workout schedule on the right side of each page with links to the new workouts included.

Workout Schedule for Beginners 

If you’re a beginner and you have just joined ZGYM™ for the first time, you should be focusing on building your strength and endurance via beginner workouts so that you can eventually progress to workout series such as Cardio Shred, Body Crush, Kettlebell Workouts,  Jump Rope Cardio, etc.

If you stay consistent and workout daily, you can get there in just a few weeks. Remember that everything takes time and practice, but nothing is impossible. EXERCISE DAILY!

There are 10 workout routines in Beginner Cardio Series, 10 in Beginner Strength Series, and 12 in Kettlebell Workouts for All Levels. You can find all of the Beginner Workouts under ZGYM > Series Title > Beginner Class. This is how you can rotate them in your weekly workout schedule:

WEEK #1

Monday – Beginner Cardio #1

Tuesday – Beginner Strength #1

Wednesday – Kettlebell workout for all levels #1

Thursday – Beginner Cardio #1 (push yourself more and try to be faster)

Friday – Beginner Strength #1 (give it your max. effort, and be faster than you were for the first time)

Saturday – Kettlebell Workout for all levels #1 (try to complete more total reps)

Sunday – Arm Balance #1 – start this series from the beginning and try to practice the same routine daily as recommended until the next Sunday. Then switch to Arm Balance #2 and continue your daily practice. This series is a great way to stretch your body and strengthen your core, arms, back and shoulders.

WEEK #2 – WEEK #10 

Is the same structure as week #1, but you will change the workouts from Beginner cardio #1 and move on to #2 and Beginner Strength #1 to Beginner Strength #2. The same with the Kettlebell for All Levels. Every week you will pick the next workout in line.

This way, you will have 10 weeks to complete all of the Beginner Workouts (Cardio & Strength)  in the ZGYM™ and  build your strength, cardio and flexibility for my high intensity routines.

WEEK #11

In this week you will finish the Kettlebell Workouts for All Levels series and try some of my easier routines from the advanced series. This way you will ease into the main weekly workout schedule…

Monday – Kettlebell Workout for All Leves #11

Tuesday – Body Crush #1 (bodyweight workout)

Wednesday – Kettlebell Workout for All Levels #12

Thursday – Cardio Shred #1 (using weights, and jump rope)

Friday – Kettlebell Workout for All Levels #11 (push yourself harder than the last time)

Saturday – Kettlebell Workout for All Levels #12 (beat your personal best)

Sunday – Arm Balance #6 (do this routine daily until the next Sunday, then switch to the next one in this series)

WEEK #12

Congratulations!! You’re ready to start following the main workout schedule on the side bars. Those workouts are not easy, but you have come so far and built so much strength that you’ll be only making progress moving forward. You can always modify any exercise if it’s too hard and go at your own pace. Just don’t lose what you’ve gained over the past 11 weeks by procrastinating!!

    Ugggggh, I’m a little nervous about this week — I had to miss the entire weekend, homework included, due to a full-blown migraine that lasted the whole weekend, and hasn’t left quite yet. *Sigh*. I don’t want to miss too much…if I can push myself through, I might just have to go at a lighter pace until it blows over.

    For me it’s the quads. They burn nearly immediately with all this. I want to focus more on hamstrings and glutes ! But I love the series so far.

    Great new week! Looking forward to getting back on track with workouts! I just received your newsletter and I am super excited for you for going back home for a visit! I can only imagine how you’re feeling Zu! The most I have been away from home was 4 months. 🙂 Hope you and Jesse will have a great time in Prague and make it the most memorable overseas trip. 🙂 I will be excited to watch your vlogs. xx

    It looks like you just tack on your arm balance after first workout… instead of doing another time with it?

    Doing so well on planned 14 day Detox (Sugar detox the Keto way)… on Keto for 8 days and then I made caramel apple oatmeal cookies…. dun dun duuuuuuuun! Needless to say I licked a lot of the bowl and had to see how they tasted.
    Question.. should I start my two weeks over or just go for another 6 days and then go to regular clean eating earning my carbs?
    Boo…. no mad a myself!!!

    My husband swears he thinks you lift heavier weights, and I tell him you don’t…right?…all you do are your workouts? No lifting heavier weights?
