My Six Week Gym Plan 💪🏽
👋🏽🍋
Fitness is a top priority for me this year! I mean I’ve always been into fitness but I want to see real growth, I want to learn more, & just fully throw myself into the fitness world. Well not fully, but you get it 😅
I’m doing a 75 day challenge & so far I’m loving it.
I also wrote out my gym plan for six weeks & then once I hit six weeks I’ll get my one rep max, note it & then write a new plan. 📝
The reason for writing it out is to keep track of the weight I did for that workout, to stay consist on what I do & not just going to random machines. I can be consistent for 4-6 weeks & really see how much strength I get in that time.
* Consistency is Key 🔑
So anyways this is my current six week gym routine & workouts. Again, just what works for me. I like to visually see the growth. I love pictures & like being able to measure & see oh yes you grew ___ inches✨
🔑words:
SS: superset
(Both exercises back to back then rest, then repeat 3/4x)
DB: Dumbbell
BB: barbell
RDLs: Romanian Dead Lifts
SL: single leg
🗣️“I’ll start Monday”
✨Well tomorrow Monday, so start with me 😉💪🏽

Ever felt like you 'miss gym' after a break, or just want to kickstart a more structured routine? My journey this year has been all about diving deeper into fitness, and having a solid plan has been a game-changer. It’s so easy to walk into the gym without a clear idea, bounce between machines, and not really see the progress you’re working for. That’s why a detailed, personal workout plan, much like what I've been following, can make all the difference. For anyone looking for an impactful approach to their training, the core idea is simple: consistency and progressive overload. My 6-week schedule, for example, isn't just about showing up; it’s about knowing exactly what to do, tracking my weights, and pushing a little harder each time. This approach, which I've found to be incredibly effective, helps make your workout journey feel less intimidating and more like a focused, 'easy' 'Reyes workout' (as in, a structured and purposeful routine). Let’s talk about structuring your gym time effectively. A typical session for me clocks in at around 1 hour 10 minutes total. This isn't just lifting; it's a strategic breakdown to maximize results and minimize injury. I always start with a crucial 10-minute warm-up to get my muscles ready, followed by a brief 5-minute zone 1 training to really activate. The main event, 60 minutes of dedicated lifting, is where the magic happens, followed by a 10-minute cool-down to aid recovery. When it comes to specific muscle groups, I make sure to hit everything effectively. For those powerful 'bi exercises,' I absolutely swear by Lat Pull-Downs for building a strong back and biceps. Pairing them with DB Static Hold Bicep Curls really isolates the bicep, giving you that satisfying burn. And don't forget Cable Curls – they maintain tension throughout the movement, which is fantastic for muscle growth. But it’s not just about the arms; my leg days are intense! I incorporate exercises like BB Pause Squats and Leg Extensions for quads, and for hammies, Deadlifts and Laying Leg Curls are non-negotiable. For glutes, Hip Thrusts and Cable Kickbacks have been incredible for shaping and strengthening. And for upper body strength, Chest Press, Shoulder Press, and Tricep Rope Pull Downs are staples. My advice for anyone looking to follow a similar path is to embrace the structure. Don’t be afraid to track your progress – whether it’s in a notebook or an app. Seeing those numbers go up, even slightly, is incredibly motivating. It truly helps you understand your body’s capabilities and celebrate every small victory. If you’re ready to stop just going through the motions and start seeing real growth, a focused 6-week plan is an amazing starting point. It’s all about showing up, pushing yourself, and trusting the process!
