Intro
I recently turned 30, I think that is a great goal in #life, I am aware of the fact that all the choices I will make in the next ten years are the ones that will affect my life the most.
So I think it is necessary to take stock of the situation for a moment and start from something that will surely stay with me for the rest of my days: my body.
Editor Note: I've always cared a lot about training and nutrition, so I'm not starting from scratch, however this time I want to approach it in a structured way. Even just sharing my intentions with you here on #Hive will help me keep my intentions strong.
This content is part of a series of posts I will publish in the future that will allow me to share with you the analysis I've done of my future, the goals I want to achieve and... why not ... maybe even give you some useful information if you also have the dream of giving a healthy and constructive turn to your life 😁.
We often want to change things, we want to be different and better.... Let's take a moment to look at ourselves in the future, how are we? What are our dreams and ambitions? What do we like about ourselves?
That's it... to reach that state, we need to understand that our future starts from #now, and from all the choices we will make in every moment until that moment.
Now i will set two key points very important to improve my phisical health:
2 - Nutrition plan to increase (the next post)
1 - Setting up the training program
I will set up a workout on a weekly basis with the goal of increasing my body composition.
My goal is to increase lean body mass through workout that stimulates muscle hypertrophy.
Increasing lean body mass is a key aspect of one's body for two factors:
- The older you get the more difficult it is to maintain or increase your muscle mass because the catabolism phenomena of our body prevail over the anabolic actions that instead repair tissues and renew them;
- The lean mass of our body plays an extremely important role in the management of metabolism: those who have more muscle mass consume more calories at rest (basal metabolism).g
I'm going to start with a total-body workout, but that will only serve to re-accustom my body to training after a summer break 😎.
I will then begin with a workout divided into three weekly sessions, each involving different muscle groups.
The training will be structured to maximize the strength and mass of my body, the goal being to keep track of my results in terms of strength gained.
This type of training will be easy to follow and will allow for continuous tracking of progress.
Before to start the program some general rules that i want to follow:
1.1 - Day one
The first workout of the week is generally the one in witch i have more energy to spend, so i decide to dedicate this session to the lower in witch i need more focus and in another traction muscles so: biceps femoris, calves and triceps.

Notes:
1 - To warm the body you can chose an aerobic exercise (cycling, running ecc...) i wanted to reduce the time of warming because if you do well the abs you can warm some muscles and i don't want i these sessions to do aerobic workout, i want to focus all my energies to the main training 💪.
2 - To carry out the abdominals muscle workout i decide to do 150 repetition of the exercises i want to do, there are a lot of possibilities inside a gym so i want to feel free to chose basing on my daily inspiration 🤣
Conclusion
I like to start with this training program, i will dedicate the next week to try it and to setting up more accurately each table if it will be necessary.
Maybe it will be difficult to carry out all the session within the timming i chose in my rules but now i wanted to set up a complete workout scheme.
The next post will be dedicated to the nutrition plan set up, that is the most important part of my fitness plan follow me to recive other informations about my fitness plan that can be useful for you too.
If you have any question about my #training program and the parameters i used to set it write in comments.
And you? You will dedicate some time to you phisical training and heath? What you think about my plan?
