Now that you should have a full chart for your total body workout. I want you to try one of three training methods. Its important to have ideas on how to mix up your routine so your body does not become complacent. 
– Pyramid Training (for strength): Complete 3 sets of an exercises with a weight. The second set should be the normal set that you are doing, for example a set of 10 with a 30lb dumbbell. The first set should less weight with more reps, so 25lbs of a set of 15. The third set should be higher weight with less reps, so 35lb with a set of 5 or 8. The main goal is create a ratio of different weights and reps, you can pick the numbers.
– Circuit (for burning calories): Focus all exercises with slightly less weight than normal. Pair up exercises that do not use the same muscle (avoid tricep and chest together). For example squads and bicep curls, complete a set of each interchanged without rest. The point is you are resting your legs when doing curls and vice versa. Pre plan all of your pairs before you start working out.
– Resistance Training (for mass): Complete two sets of each exercise with a weight less than normal. Perform the exercise at a slower pace, the slower the better. Focus on form
Now you can also combine these training methods as well all different ways. For advanced people, you could even combine all three, but it would be very difficult.

Which training method did you choose and why? If you tried multiple ones on different days, what was the difference? How did you like the training method, would you continue using it?
