She looks high maintenance. Can she put on sweats and be out of the door in 5 minutes for hiking or something, or is it a caluculated game of what hiking outfit she needs to wear for IG pics that day?

Monday: back and chest
Wednesday: legs
Friday: Delts and arms

So weights three days a week lifting and I try to hit cardio 2 to 5 days a week. Today was an off day from lifting so I ran 4.1 slow 9 minute miles (around 6.6 MPH) then hit the heavy bag.  On weekends I drink beer like a drunk and add so many calories it's hard to take off. 5'8" 182lb right now. I would like to get down to 170lbs to 175lbs.

You mean besides pure enjoyment....Of course....Your body doesn't work to a 7 day week...

If you are recovered and can progress lifts then why not train every 4-5th day?

One bodypart session per week = 52 session/yr
Training a bodypart twice every 8 days = 90ish sessions/yr

More sessions, more progress, more muscle...

What about the argument that the little bit of extra rest also helps build muscle? That is when our body is actually building the muscle.

I'm 51, 5'9", 210lbs and I have a similar routine.

Friday: Chest/Back
Sunday: Shoulders/Arms
Tuesday: Legs

The days off in between are essential. 

During off days I do 1 hour of fasted morning cardio, except Wednesday because my legs are like jello.

5 times a week. Homegym + bodyweight execises. 20 minutes each time. Works wonders for me.

Also a couple of long walks per week.

Wanking once every 2 weeks.

What is the benefit of this hot yoga?

hot yoga benefits for a bodybuilder from me

1. calories burned 400-500 per session
2. excessive sweating/water weight - makes me drink more water during the day
3. improves balance/flexibility
4. slows my mind down, its hot as hell in their 104 degrees so/i sleep awesome when i am done with it
5. done properly - its tons of stretching
6. very challenging for musclebound types
7. hot chics -
8. It has improved my bbing posing since i am more focused with my body & control
9. abs abs abs - most bbers dont train abs enough
10. accountability/place to be. keeps me out of trouble - i go in the evening typically 530pm class or 7pm class


if you do to decide to do it, give it a real chance. sign up for 2 weeks and go 5x a week, i would recommend a month and go 20-22 in 30 days.
 

i love hot yoga - shop around, also you will do a ton of laundry cuz you and your towels are drenched
