What is the best place to get a full body workout plan? I am trying to google a site but not having much luck.

I'm so sorry you didn't get any hits on this right away, my favorite was www.fitnessblender.com and now I have been checking out www.jessicasmithtv.com/free-workout-videos/

I love full body workouts. Consistency is the key.

I like to do squats, deadlifts, bench press, bicep curls, tricep curls, military presses and pull ups. That pretty much does it for me. And then I add a separate cardio session. Never a cardio and a strength session at the same time. That is lazy and crazy.

Pinterest has some different workout plans too if you want a handout with a list of exercises.

I can't post links, but if you type in 30 minute workouts (or whatever you are looking for) there are some great videos on youtube!

Beachbody on demand! For sure one of the best places online to get tons of different workouts- https://www.beachbody.com/product/fi...kout-videos.do You can even test it out for the first 30 days. I also take pictures of the workouts in fitness magazines. I usually do those routines at the gym and then when I workout at home I do the workouts that need the internet.

I recommend Mark Rippetoe workout program, its called startingstrength but don't worry its not like you wont get a mass if it is your goal -that will depend on your meal plan how big you become. Its perfect program for beginners, Very simple and very effective. I have seen insane results with this

I use StrongLifts5x5. It's the same basic moves that IanG mentioned, but has an easy to use app that goes along with it. There is also tons of information on the website. All the information and the app are free. You can pay a few bucks for a couple of useful extras on the app, but you can totally do the program without it.

http://stronglifts.com/5x5/


ETA - I really have no idea why there is an ad in the middle of my post. Sorry about that.

I do an upper/lower body split routine. I base my workout around the squat, deadlift, and benchpress, also known as "The Big 3". They're all compound movements, meaning they work more than one muscle at a time, therefore burns more calories.

It costs a bit of money but we found, based on recommendations, a good personal trainer who is willing to come to our house about every 6 weeks and has crafted and updated a plan specific to our goals and current state. ......... currently doing walk out planks, block walks, side planks, some other ab exercises, one legged standing from chair etc.

I just started CrossFit for the first time! It is DEFINITELY a full body workout and really pushes you to give your 100% because of the social environment (for example, being partners and one person rows to 500m while the other planks with a weight on their back--you really want to row for your partner who is holding the weight!!)
