Healthy Protein Bar Recipe

Here’s the protein bar recipe I use.

Main Workout Schedule

For a very efficient full body workout, one or two workouts a week.

  • Use variations of each exercise occasionally.
  • Minimum one workout day per week.
Day 1
Day 2
Squats (or Leg Press / Single Leg Press and Bulgarian Split Squats) Deadlift (or Hex Bar Deadlift or Dumbbell Sumo Deadlift / Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift)
Pull-Ups (Wide / Close & Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift High Pull) Push-Ups (plus Close & Decline / Standing Single Dumbbell Shoulder Press)
Core (Hanging Leg Raises / Planks) Bench Press (Flat Bench w/Bar or Flat/Incline Dumbbell Press) / Forward Dips

Alternate Extended Workout Schedule

This workout schedule covers all of the best exercises for all of the major muscle groups, with the goal of covering them all over about 6 workout days.  Each workout day should take about 45 minutes from the time you walk in, to when you walk out.

  • Days 5 and 6 can be combined
  • Day X can be done anytime (I typically do it on Day 4)
  • Make sure to do 10-15 minutes cardio AFTER workout
