Plan Details
The Three Basic Workout Days (2 X Weekly) routine by fairtax is a 8 day workout plan. It is a beginner level plan to achieve general fitness goals.
The point of his layout is not to get hung up on particular day of the week, but to be able to start back into a workout after missing a day or week. You should try to keep one day a week were you simple rest and do nothing. Days 1 and 2 can be done with your home gym, day 3 requires a YMCA membership. Run at least 15 mins and ride for at least 45 minutes.
