    Hi everyone

    Just started in a new gym with only about 8 weeks of experience in terms of devoted sessions to weights.

    Was gonna use the attached as a beginner for the Push/Pull/Legs method.

    Plan is to do this 3days a week - push Monday, pull Wednesday and legs Friday in addition to a spin class and a 5/10k each week as well with two rest days.

    My goal is to tone my body overall and shift some stubborn fat - for the people who are more knowledgeable than me, does this look ok?

    Your goal is dictated by diet not program.
    That's more of a bodybuilder program. I don't see the benefit in smashing area per day. IMO 3 days of balanced lifting would suit your better

    yeah i would agree with Mellor, you would only be hitting each group of muscles once a week which wouldnt be ideal. Push/Pull/legs is a good idea and you should make some progress on it as a beginner but i think its more suited to someone training 5 or 6 days a week really.
