Hi. I need some advice with someone who came to me for help with training, diet, etc.
Normally I would know how to approach the situation, but I just wanted some advice before I advise her on what to do.
I'm not sure how old she is, but I think she is probably 50 years old. What kind of adjustments should I make to a normal routine considering her age. OR should I not make any?
I would put her on a 4 day split.
Monday-Chest and Tri's
Tuesday-Back and Bi's
Thurs. - Quads and Hamstrings with the use of squats
Fri. - Shoulders, calves, and Abs
1 min. between sets. 3 exercises for 12-15 reps, then after three weeks bring down to 10-12 reps, then after 3 weeks bring down to 8-10 reps. then start over. Increase intensity over three week period until failure on third week.
Oh, and she tore her rotator cuff a year and a half ago, but recieved therapy for it.
Only cardio would be warm up and cool down.
Thoughts?
