Focus on a muscle group and go from there. To explain, on Monday's I work on my chest and triceps. For each muscle group, I do four different sets/exercises (i.e...CHEST:flat bench dumbbell press, dumbell fly, incline dumbbell press, incline dumbbell fly). As for cardio, it depends on what your goal is. If you are trying to gain muscle mass, keep cardio to a minimum. DO NOT completely do away with cardio as you will not burn enough calories. My routine contains cardio every other day. I hope this helps<br><b>References : </b><br> To answer the first part of your question, it doesnt matter how many machines you use?

Such as Weights: Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Cardio: Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Take Sunday off for rest and recuperation. As for how many weight machines each day of resistance workouts that depends on what your goals are, time constraints and the fact that you do not want to overdo it. If what you want is to increase muscle mass then do fewer exercises that will hit the large muscle groups. Then later if you want to get leaner and cut, do more of the exercises that will hit specific muscles.<br><b>References : </b><br> You should do weight routines every other day and cardio in between.

Free weights are the way to go. You should only focus on one or two groups of muscles a day. Ex, chest and back. Then do cardio on rest days. And you need at least one day a week where you don't workout at all. Cardio everyday will slim you down quickly but not build you as much. You should really do p90x. It's what you're looking for in an easy step by step plan. I am a coach for Beachbody, which is the company that makes p90x. You can buy it here through me. www.beachbodycoach.com/happyandhealthy I will also become your coach when you do to keep you on track and motivated.<br><b>References : </b><br> You will have a hard time building your body with machines.
