Looking for a Training Partner (Les Mills New Lynn)

[Johnboy007]

I have recently moved to Auckland (New Lynn) and have been going to the local Les Mills, looking for a little added motivation and pressure the kind that you don't find training alone. So wondering if there is anyone out there in the same position who wants to train beyond their boundaries instead of within them as I appear to be doing now.

I am 5' 11" and 88kg, reasonable strength but that is building back up after a few months of inconsistent training. Looking to train 3 days on 1 day off (without fail) at about 6.30pm weekdays and 10 or 11am weekends with a routine something like this

Day 1 Chest

Day 2 Hamstrings, Calves

Day 3 Biceps

Day 4 Shoulders, Traps

Day 5 Quads, Calves

Day 6 Triceps

Day 7 Back, Traps

A little abs and cardio at your own discretion, but will ramp up more towards summer however cardio will always remain outside of this training window as a separate session. The 7 day split over 9 days means the days off are always changing so you are not always fresh for the same body part each week, my theory is it gives the whole body a fair chance and results.

My working focus is the 4-6 rep range with most exercises, always doing compound exercises first up with a few warm up sets (8-12 reps) before getting heavy (or heavier). Sometimes even pushing out a couple of 1-2 rep sets for the likes of bench press just to get past those plateaus, mainly because I can't work to failure by myself without the risk of killing myself.

Anyway I consider myself to be a fairly seasoned trainer, at the moment my focus is strength and growth and I am keeping things simple (back to basics exercises). If there is anyone out there who trains at the same gym and is looking for someone to train with, you don't necessarily need to do the same reps or weights just the same body parts at the same time..... drop me a line.

Don't care what age, what sex. Just want someone to help spot when required who is self motivated enough to be consistent, we all know the "shit happens" button gets pushed from time to time so some flexibility is all good.

Life goes on and so does my training, just thought I would ask.
