Weekly Overview

DayFocusTime
1Push (Chest / Shoulders / Triceps) + Abs~70 min
2Pull (Back / Biceps)~65 min
3Legs~60 min
4Push (repeat) + Abs~70 min
5Pull (repeat)~65 min
6Legs (repeat) + Abs + HIIT~70 min
7Rest / Active recoveryโ€”

All exercises are dumbbell / machine / bodyweight only โ€” nothing requires a spotter, so the whole plan is safe to do solo. Tap "Photos" or "Tutorial" on any exercise card to open a live search, or "โš™ Advanced" to reveal a suggested starting weight in kg, a kettlebell alternative where one exists, and an extra coaching tip.

Weight ranges are general starting points for adult beginners/intermediates, not a prescription โ€” pick a weight where your last 1โ€“2 reps of a set feel challenging but doable with good form, and adjust up or down from there.

Day 1 โ€” Push + Abs

๐Ÿƒ Cardio: 15โ€“20 min moderate pace after weights.
Dumbbell Flat Bench Press
Dumbbell Flat Bench Press4 x 8-10

Press dumbbells up from chest, elbows ~45ยฐ. If you fail a rep, rotate and drop the dumbbells to your sides.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 8โ€“12 kg per dumbbell  |  Intermediate: 14โ€“20 kg per dumbbell
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” Kettlebell Floor Press, similar weight range, easier on the shoulders.
๐Ÿ’ก TipNo bench? Do it on the floor โ€” your elbows stop naturally at the ground, which is gentler on the shoulder joint.
Incline Dumbbell Press
Incline Dumbbell Press3 x 10-12

Same movement on a 30-45ยฐ incline bench; hits upper chest more.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 6โ€“10 kg per dumbbell  |  Intermediate: 12โ€“16 kg per dumbbell
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” Kettlebell Incline Press, same range.
๐Ÿ’ก TipNo incline bench? Prop a flat bench on a low box, or set an adjustable bench to ~30ยฐ.
Dumbbell Shoulder Press
Dumbbell Shoulder Press3 x 10-12

Press dumbbells overhead from shoulder height; don't lock elbows hard at the top.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 6โ€“8 kg per dumbbell  |  Intermediate: 10โ€“14 kg per dumbbell
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” Kettlebell Overhead Press; many find kettlebells more comfortable here.
๐Ÿ’ก TipSeated is more stable and isolates the shoulders; standing brings your core into it more.
Lateral Raises
Lateral Raises3 x 12-15

Raise dumbbells to shoulder height, slight elbow bend. Go light and slow.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 2โ€“4 kg per dumbbell  |  Intermediate: 5โ€“8 kg per dumbbell
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionLess common โ€” dumbbells are more comfortable for this one.
๐Ÿ’ก TipThis move is about control, not weight. If you're swinging or shrugging to lift it, go lighter.
Rope Triceps Pushdown
Rope Triceps Pushdown3 x 12-15

Elbows pinned to sides, push down and spread the rope at the bottom.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 10โ€“15 kg on the stack  |  Intermediate: 20โ€“30 kg on the stack
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionNot applicable โ€” this is a cable-machine move.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 6โ€“8 kg (one dumbbell, both hands)  |  Intermediate: 10โ€“14 kg
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” hold a kettlebell by the horns instead of a dumbbell.

Abs

Hanging Leg Raise
Hanging Leg Raise3 x 12

Hang from a bar, raise knees (or straight legs) toward chest, control the lowering.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: Bodyweight to start  |  Intermediate: Add ankle weights (1โ€“2 kg) once bodyweight is easy

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 15โ€“20 kg on the stack  |  Intermediate: 25โ€“35 kg on the stack
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionNot applicable โ€” this is a cable-machine move.

๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” Kettlebell RDL, same range, works well single or double.

Seated or lying machine, isolates hamstrings, no balance risk.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 15โ€“20 kg on the stack  |  Intermediate: 25โ€“35 kg on the stack

Rise onto toes, pause, lower slowly. Can be done on a machine or standing with dumbbells.

๐Ÿ’ช Starting weightBeginner: 10โ€“14 kg per dumbbell (or bodyweight)  |  Intermediate: 16โ€“24 kg per dumbbell
๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Kettlebell optionYes โ€” hold a kettlebell at your chest instead.
๐Ÿ’ก TipPause a second at the top and get a full stretch at the bottom โ€” partial reps are the most common mistake here.

๐ŸŽฏ Goals & Staying On Track

Consistency beats intensity. Log your weight below and watch the trend, not any single day โ€” this page is here for when motivation dips, not just when it's high.

Your Milestones (If You Stay Consistent)

These are general estimates based on typical fat-loss pacing, not a personalized prescription โ€” actual results depend heavily on your diet (not covered in this plan), sleep, and individual factors. Track waist measurement and photos alongside the scale; they tell the real story.

2 Weeks
Habit-building phase

No dramatic visual change yet โ€” this stretch is about locking in consistency. With a moderate calorie deficit, roughly 0.5โ€“1 kg down is a typical range.

1 Month
~2โ€“3 kg down from today

If training stays consistent and diet is in a steady deficit, this is a realistic general pace. Shoulders and arms may start looking slightly more defined.

2 Months
~4โ€“6 kg down from today

Visible improvement in arm and calf shape as muscle tone builds and fat continues to drop. Waist typically starts feeling looser.

3 Months
~6โ€“9 kg down from today

Upper body definition more visible, waistline noticeably smaller. A good point to reassess and re-set the next stretch of goals.

6 Months
Six-pack territory for many

With sustained consistency, many people reach a body-fat level where abs start becoming visible โ€” but this varies a lot by starting point, genetics, and diet adherence. Some need longer; that's normal, not failure.

๐Ÿ“ My Log

Log your weight, mark the day done, jot a note. Saved right in this page โ€” works as long as you open it from the same hosted link/device.

History

๐Ÿ“… My Timeline

Pick a start date and how many days a week you'll realistically train โ€” this maps out roughly where you'd land, week by week, across weight loss, muscle definition, and six-pack visibility.

These are the same general, non-personalized estimates as the Goals tab, just spread across a calendar based on your chosen frequency. Fewer days/week stretches the timeline โ€” but diet, sleep, and genetics move these dates more than the day count alone. Not medical advice.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Diet

Not a prescribed plan โ€” I'm not a nutritionist or dietitian. These are general, widely-used sports nutrition principles applied to the pattern you already follow. For anything tailored to medical conditions, allergies, or precise targets, a registered dietitian is the right call.

Your Current Pattern

Early AM
Chia Seeds

A spoon of chia seed powder, usually in water โ€” good fiber and omega-3 habit, worth keeping.

9:00โ€“9:30 AM
Breakfast

Your first full meal of the day.

~11:00โ€“12:00 PM
Protein Shake

Protein powder โ€” a convenient way to hit your protein target without needing to cook.

12:00โ€“1:00 PM
Fruit

A piece of fruit โ€” good fiber, vitamins, and natural sweetness.

~1:00 PM
Lunch

Your main carb-heavy meal of the day.

Afternoon
Tea + Soda + Snacks

Tea without sugar (good), plus Diet Coke or Thums Up, plus a few snacks/biscuits.

Evening
Tea + Light Snacks

Another tea, with a bit of a snack like biscuits.

8:00 PM
Dinner

Your final meal of the day.

General Tips For Your Goals

๐ŸฅฉProtein at every meal

You're already using a protein shake โ€” spreading protein across breakfast, lunch, and dinner too (not just the shake) helps preserve muscle while you're losing fat. A commonly cited general range for someone strength-training in a deficit is roughly 1.6โ€“2.2 g of protein per kg of bodyweight per day โ€” that's a reference point to gauge against, not a strict target.

๐ŸšYour carb timing is fine as-is

Having your main carbs once a day around lunch is a completely workable approach โ€” plenty of people do well on it. If you ever want to experiment, shifting some of those carbs closer to your workout window can help with energy, but there's no need to change something that's already working.

๐ŸฅคThe soda swap

Diet Coke is sugar-free; Thums Up is a regular sugar-sweetened cola. If fat loss is the main goal, leaning toward the diet version more often is a simple, low-effort lever โ€” no need to cut it out, just notice which one you're reaching for.

๐ŸชSnack swaps (optional)

If you ever want to tighten things up further without feeling restricted, swapping a biscuit or two for roasted chana, a handful of nuts, or Greek yogurt keeps the snack habit while adding more protein and fiber. This is optional, not a rule.

๐Ÿ’งWater alongside your tea/soda

Tea and diet soda both count toward fluids, but plain water alongside them helps with appetite regulation and recovery, especially training 6 days a week.

๐ŸŒฑKeep the chia seeds

Good source of fiber and omega-3s โ€” a solid habit as it stands.

Diet Log

Optional โ€” a quick daily check-in, same idea as the workout log.
