Hi James and Teri
You guys have done so well – keep it up.

Waouh! Great routine! Really wanna start it up. How long should such a routine be? Thanks for the work!!
Hi Gregory, Thanks for commenting!
The best option when it comes to fitting this type of strength work into your training program is to plan 20-30min routines 2-3 times a week, rather than just doing one big, longer session. Each workout, take a varied selection of the exercises above (or others) mixing them up regularly, to keep things interesting!
Thanks James! Perfect, I’m on my way! I promise I won’t do more than 30’00”. Cheers!
