Gym Style Upper Body Question

[momto4]

Is it a no no to do the two gym style upper body work outs on back to back days? What about on the same day, in the same work out?

not Cathe

But, definitely, that would be a no-no. What about a lower body workout or a core workout or a cardio one?

Am I understanding you right in that you mean GymStyle Back/Shoulders/Biceps one day, and GymStyle Chest/Triceps the next day?

I've done them this way for years. Works for me! In fact, I did GS B/S/B yesterday and just finished GS C/T this morning!

I wouldn't work the same body part two days in a row, but these are different body parts.

You mean GS C&T & GS B,S,B in the same day back to back? I think that's great.. I was thinking of upper body work for this afternoon and I think you've convinced me to do this. Course it would be a very long workout but if you're up for it, go for it! Thanks for the idea.

I do both of the GS uppers on the same day - it's long, but I like to do upper one day and lower another day. If I separate the uppers, then it takes up a third day.

I always separate them because I run every day too. I try to keep my workout DVD an hour or less because I add 30 to 45 more minutes with the running. That's enough for one day!

Yes, it is!! I run on separate days. I'm a separatey girl.

I do upper body splits on back to back days often with no problems. Doing both work outs in the split in the same day seems a bit much because that's a long work out and I don't think I'd be able to give my all to the 2nd work out but I guess if you have the energy and the strength there is technically nothing wrong with doing it that way!

I've done Gym Style Back, Shoulders,& Biceps and Gym Style Chest & Triceps on consecutive days with no problem.
