Each box in this grid is called a cell. âColumnâ A B C D E F G âRowâ 1 âCellâ 2 3 4 Spreadsheets can be created by hand, using paper and pencil, or created with a computer software program. In computer software programs, the columns are labeled with letters (A, B, C ...) and the rows are numbered (1, 2, 3 ...).
Letâs say youâre performing seated shoulder presses 3 times a week. You use 15 lb. dumbbells and do 4 sets of 12 reps each on each day. You can probably maintain the muscle mass you have now by only doing shoulder presses once a week, instead of 3 times. (!!!) However, you need to continue to do appropriate volume (4 sets of 12, maybe a little more) with the same intensity (15 lb. dumbbells).
The frequency of your workouts will depend on your fitness level and your schedule. The general guidelines are: For health, try moderately intense cardio 30 minutes a day, five days a week, or vigorously intense cardio 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week - You can also do a mixture. To maintain weight and/or avoid regaining weight - You need about 150-250 minutes (20-35 minutes daily) or try burning 1200 to 2000 kcal a week.
