Plan Details
The Alex' Girlpower routine by jpe70 is a 4 day workout plan. It is a beginner level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
Short on time, lunch workouts. Focus on legs and butt (naturally). Basic idea is building from Stronglift or Starting Strength schedule with core exercises to involve more muscle groups for each exercise. Body split on two days but with slightly different focus for each pair of days, still enough to get 2 workouts/week for each muscle group. Phew, tough one. So, we begin with squat, bench press, military press and chins split on two days. Complement that with more focus/higher rep and add some abs. Higher rep sets on core exercises are warmup done with about 50/75% weight.
