I was recently asked to create a workout plan for a woman in their fifties who is getting married in a few months and wants to tone up. They don't have a lot of time and have an intermediate level of experience with working out at home and the gym. Here is my realistic (as opposed to a 7 day brutal regimen that most people wouldn't be able to stick to) 4 day workout plan. Two days are at the gym and 2 days are at home. It's low impact, works all muscle groups, improves cardio, burns fat, builds lean muscle, and increases bone density. You'll be looking perfect on your wedding day!
4 Day Wedding Workout Plan: Home + Gym
x = 1 set of 12-15 repetitions
Schedule Example:
Sunday: Rest
Monday: Day 1
Tuesday Rest
Wednesday: Day 2
Thursday: Rest
Friday: Day 3:
Saturday: Day 4
It ends up being a little more than every other day and each workout should last 45-60 minutes which isn't bad at all.
Day 1: Gym Total Body + Cardio
3x Chest Press Machine
3x Row Machine
3x Lat Pulldown Machine
