For most beginners, a full body split is a great first workout program to use. It allows you to train each muscle 2-4 times per week depending on how you choose to schedule your workouts for the week. It can also help burn more calories initially as you may be able to move more total weight (depending on what your Planet Fitness has) than you would performing a split where small(er) muscle groups are trained on their own day. Planet Fitness is known for only having various machines and dumbbells, so the following workout will focus on exercises which utilize those pieces of equipment. The above workout routine was written with the equipment available at Planet Fitness in mind. It's comprised of 3 different full body workouts. Feel free to do them 3 times per week with at least one rest day in between each workout. Alternatively, you can cycle through them by performing one of the listed workouts every other day. The workout program does have some short comings, as you’ll be limited by the amount of weight you can use due to a lack of barbell training. However, it is still a sound beginner workout that will target nearly every muscle group throughout the week. If you feel the total number of reps and sets is too high for you to begin with, feel free to start with what you are capable of doing and work your way up to the prescribed rep and set counts. Limit your rest periods to between 60-90 seconds after each set and exercise. The program is void of abdominal exercises. This was to make room to include lifts that target all of the other muscles groups. The core is engaged throughout most compound movements. But, if you have a goal to build your abs, you may want to consider including some additional ab isolation work in addition to this program. Cardio can be performed in addition to this workout either after your workouts, on your rest days, or both depending on your goals.
