Here I have laid out my workouts this week, I typically teach class 3x per week and play soccer 1x per week, but I have not included on what days these are. I try to make my workouts for the entire week on Sunday evening, #1 so I'm not wandering the gym making it up as I go and #2 its time effective for me to get in and get out with a plan.
I like to superset (pick 2 exercises and alternate these rather than resting) throughout my workout to keep my heart rate up and make my 1.5 hours as efficient as possible. By doing High Intensity workouts you are able to burn more fat while keeping your muscle mass intact thus forming a lean physique and its faster and more effective than staying on cardio for long periods of time. Unless you are training for long distances and heart and lung endurance (which I have done on many occasions), I don't recommend long cardio time. You'll notice I choose my warm ups bases on what I am working that day so the muscle group is effectively warmed up and ready for work! I typically do 3 sets of eat exercise about 15 reps, unless its leg day then I shoot for about 20 reps.
