We’ve all heard “don’t skip leg day!” And it’s absolutely true. But in fact…you shouldn’t skip any day! Spacing out which part of your body you strengthen can allow you to target, stretch, and tone more specifically each individual muscle. Here are some tips on how to get a full body workout over the course of each week by working out a different muscle group each day.

Keep an Eye on Your Schedule
Do you have plans to go hiking or stand at a concert this week? Maybe skip leg day this week. If you know you’ll be using a certain part of your body a lot on a specific day, you’ll want to plan to work that section on a day when it won’t be sore—or you may want to skip it completely if your activity will work it out for you.
Make Sure to Plan
Working out different parts of your body on different days requires sticking to a plan of operation. That way, you’ll be prepared in advance and you won’t end up working one part of your body and then finding your schedule won’t fit the rest. You may also wish to meal plan to accommodate soreness, strength, or cardio workouts.
