Mainly just looking for a few program suggestions.
Been lifting for like 6 months steadily. Haven't really focused on losing the gut.
Would like to find a 12-24 week program that I can try out for the beginning of 2015.

Current Routine/Split
  • Monday: Arms
  • Tuesday: Chest & Half of Legs
  • Wednesday: Back
  • Thursday: Shoulders & Second Chest Day
  • Friday: Legs
As well as throwing in some medium intensity cardio ( 4.5-8.5 speed, on 4-6 incline on treadmill )
but only doing it in like 5-10 minute increments as I am not conditioned whatsoever for long distanced cardio.

If anyone has other tips, etc. Just let me know please!
Thank you for your time.

(edited:) *I didn't like format before

cardio, water, sleep and cut back on things like alcohol (beer), soft drink and other empty carbs.

If you want to maintain as much muscle as possible while losing weight you should:
follow a decent lifting program
eat at a caloric deficit

simple as that

I'll let the others make specific recommendations

My upper chest lacks quite a bit so I basically just do incline decline on thursday and few other isolation lifts on thursday.
Also I don't really know why the order is like that my buddy just made this split for me like 3 months ago
