4DS question - can I do two weight workouts in one day?

[tricia]

Hi Guys,

I've recently started the 4 Day Split rotation that Cathe posted, and I had to miss the weight portion due to my twins waking from their nap a little early!!

I did the HIS cardio, but missed the weight portion. DO you think I could add this to another day of the series? What day would it work with best?

Thanks for your input - this is one tough series!!

I combined back, chest, and shoulders on one day... It worked out better for me timewise to do it that way. Then I did legs one day, and biceps,triceps, and calves another day.

Why not? I did the upper body premix in one workout...it was long, but I did it!

I have been doing 4 Day Split in 3 days by doing legs and abs, then I do the upper body premix omitting the shoulders and do shoulders and abs on the 3rd day. I like doing it this way because it still puts chest and back alternating together and triceps and biceps alternating together. That gives me time for a break to have a yoga day and then do a Total body at the end of the week.

What a great idea Diane Sue! I've wanted to use the weight work from 4DS more often than I do and I like this idea. Would you mind sharing what the rest of your rotation looks like when you use 4DS like this?
