Friday 86 days Split Floor Plan

Working out daily can come in many forms.  Sometimes you work out early or sometimes late.  There might even be times when you have to work out at two different times of the day to get your entire work out regimen completed.  This notion reminded me of a split floor plan house for some reason.  I remember purchasing my first home and it had a split floor plan which is a house with a master bedroom all the way on the other side of the house.. I guess the purpose is to be as far as possible from your children (lol), which has benefits and costs.  I would say the main benefit of having a master bedroom on the other side of the house is privacy.  Not worrying about noise can be beneficial to all parties involved.  Usually houses that have this split floor plan cost a tad bit more due to the appeal of having the bedrooms separated.

In like manner working out at two points of the day can offer some benefits but likewise has its share of cost. The immediate benefit that come to mind is accomplishing your work out routine.  Working out multiple muscle groups can take time and not everyone schedule allows for 2 plus hours in the gym so splitting the work out helps with this problem. By working out in the morning then evening allows the body to rest somewhat so tackling a large work out still ends up being effective thus creating results.

The costs on the other hand should be considered.  Spending valuable time to go back to the gym in the same day takes time from something or someone else not to mention the gas it takes to get you there.  Perhaps if the gym is on your regular route or if you choose to implement a split day and your evening is totally free this idea might be a good one.  For me this is the case therefore while I wont be splitting every work out I can see that I can implement as needed.

Recommendations- If this idea strikes you as ideal for your lifestyle just know that despite being an healthy option, it should not be an everyday option.  It is also important to remember that the body needs fuel to sustain any work out much less two in one day. Getting the right amount of nutrients and calories is necessary to support a rigorous routine so eat right and drink lots of water.
