Healthy Students on a Budget: Gym plans for students

Whats going on guys, today we are going to talk about making a schedule going to the gym.

It is hard while your at school, working part time and trying to study and hand in projects on time.

I am going to leave some tips on scheduling your time at the gym.
- Try to go to the gym for an hour
- Try to pre plan your week with school work, classes, and your job, and find a way where you can squeeze an hour at the gym.
- Try to stop your self from procrastinating from projects and other assignments.
- have a set plan on what muscles groups you will be working on during each day.
- Try to keep your rest periods, and chit chat with others at a minimum, because you want to get in there, and leave. 

I'll do my self for an example!!

So Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays are the days I go to the gym, and maybe one day on the weekend if I am not working late.  Tuesday I have the one class, along with Thursday, and Friday.  So those days are my workout days.  It is hard to go to the gym 5 days a week. So when I am at the gym i will focus on one major muscle group etc. ( chest, back, legs, and shoulders).  One day I am at the gym I will focus on the one muscle group.

It is much easier for me the schedule myself this way because its a 2 minute trip to the gym for me.

If you are used to going to the gym for 2 hours a day trying cutting it to an hour and focus on compound workouts.  When your doing compound workouts your working at least two main muscles at a time.  Meaning your getting a overall better workout, compared to just doing bicep curls.

- Straight bench
- Pull ups
- deadlift 
- Squats
- Military Press
- bent over rows

By adding one or two of these workouts in your routine per workout session, you will see some strength gains, and helps your build muscle, by focusing many muscles at a time compared to the one.

Also going to the gym is a great stress reliever, especially when things are becoming busy with school.  By going to the gym you can take out your stress at the gym and come home relaxed.
