We will keep these workouts short and intense by doing some circuit trainings.

A traditional workout looks like:

• Exercise 1 - Set 1
• Rest
• Exercise 1 - Set 2
• Rest
• Exercise 2 - Set 1
• Rest
• Exercise 2 - Set 2
• Rest

A circuit looks like:

• Exercise 1 - Set 1
• Exercise 2 - Set 1
• Rest
• Exercise 1 - Set 2
• Exercise 2 - Set 2
• Rest

You perform several exercises in a row before taking a break. It helps you target more muscles in a shorter period of time and will keep your heart rate high, which will help you burn more calories than a traditional workout.

To lose weight you need to be in a caloric deficit, which means burning more calories than you consume. In this men's summer body plan, we included cardio sessions to help you burn the most calories. It will have two HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) cardio sessions and one LISS (Low Intensity Steady State) cardio sessions. We recommend you to do these cardio sessions a couple hours apart from your weight trainings if you can. Otherwise, you can do them right after your weight training sessions.

This men's summer workout plan will be structured as follow:

• Day 1: Leg and HIIT Cardio
• Day 2: Chest, Tricep and Abs
• Day 3: LISS Cardio
• Day 4: Rest
• Day 5: Back, Bicep and HIIT Cardio
• Day 6: Chest, Tricep and Abs
• Day 7: Rest

We highly recommend you to follow this 5-day men's workout routine to get the most results. But if your schedule is too tight, you could modify the plan to do it in 3 days as such:

• Day 1: Leg and Cardio HIIT
• Day 2: Rest
• Day 3: Back, Bicep and HIIT Cardio
• Day 4: Rest
• Day 5: Chest, Tricep and Abs
• Day 6: Rest
• Day 7: Rest

This plan helps you get a well structured workout schedule, but you can also change it.Here are a couple of changes you could make:

• Everyone should aim for the reps indicated and adjust the weights accordingly.
• Beginners who have never exercised before might want to try the 3-day option instead.
• You may also increase/decrease the number of sets per workout.

Following this men's workout routine alone will help you get good results with your current nutrition. If you feel ready to take on another challenge, try this men's nutrition plan.
