Plan Details
The James' full body compound plan routine by jamesaburroughs is a 8 day workout plan. It is a beginner level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
A routine for beginners with compound exercises that help burn a lot of fat and build a lot of muscle. Should be Done 2+ times a week with one day focused on endurance with dumbbells one on endurance with barbells and one on pure strength. If you are In a calorie defecit there are options with cardio at the end of the same program reducing target sets to 2 as to not extend workout length too much. There is also an upper body lower body split which can be used to keep the exercises fresh every few weeks and keep your body guessing. Good luck. (warm up sets are not incorporated in programme. It is recommended that when lifting heavy you use warm up sets to minimise the risk of injury)
