It’s Thursday right?
I am really happy about my new workout routine where I do four split-days a week and I’m starting out with 2 exercises per body part with 2 sets each. Sometimes I do more, depending on how I feel. The size of the weights are not important to share (whether it’s heavy weight/low rep or low weight/high rep) because everyone can do something different. After a few weeks, I’ll increase to 3 sets and so on. Eventually I’ll add in more isolation exercises, but that’s not my focus right now.
This workout works for me, because it takes the pressure off of writing everything down while I am in the gym and coming up with extensive routines ahead of time (this way I can concentrate on my workout more). I keep a written log of my workouts afterward. I show up with the body parts to work in my mind, then select the exercises for each. I am able to change it up to keep myself interested. I feel less pressure to stick with an exercise that I chose when not in the gym (from a book, etc…) where I find it just doesn’t work for me and be forced to do it for 4-6weeks.
This is working well for me. My legs haven’t been this sore in a long time even on my other routines the past two months. Two days later they are still a very healthy kind of sore! While some here or in my regular life may think I’m not doing enough, all workout routines are different. I also don’t post everything in detail as to what I do, because I have written logs for that. What I do know is that I’ve got things working well for me, which for every person that’s a different routine, exercise, etc…
You can learn from what others do, but in the end you have to figure out what works best for you. Some people exercise to extremes and believe that’s the only way to be the best, others workout more moderately and feel they’ve found the holy grail to exercise and yet some even achieve winning results in the least amount of work (which is appalling to those exercise extremists)! All bodies are different. I’m finding what works for me and hopefully you know what works for you or will soon! 
On another note… I’m sick with some sort of cold. I got sick over the weekend and thought I would shake it off. I haven’t been feeling well and each day it’s been a little worse. Today I’m going home sick to rest after a morning meeting. Hopefully I can shake this feeling before the start of next week so I can enjoy my workouts.
