🏋️‍♀️ My Wedding-Ready Workout Split: 7 Days to Feel Strong, Lean, and Confident

With my wedding coming up in October, I’ve fine-tuned my training to help me feel my absolute best—mentally and physically—on the big day. My focus? Staying strong, leaning out just a touch, and keeping energy high without burning out.

Here’s a peek into my weekly workout split that’s helping me get wedding ready without obsessing or overtraining:

My Weekly Workout Breakdown:

1. Legs

Glutes, hamstrings, quads—we’re working it all. Lower body workouts are key for building strength, boosting metabolism, and creating muscle tone that supports everything else I do during the week. Think: hip thrusts, squats, lunges, RDLs.

2. Upper Body + Cardio

I mix upper body strength training with a cardio finisher. This is where I focus on posture (hello, wedding dress!), arms, shoulders, and back. Superset style keeps my heart rate up and my sessions efficient.

3. Cardio

Whether it’s a HIIT session, incline treadmill walk, or a sweaty spin class, this day is about getting my heart rate up, improving endurance, and leaning out without high-impact stress.

4. Upper Body + Cardio (again!)

Day 4 mirrors Day 2 but with a different focus—if Day 2 was push-dominant (chest, shoulders, triceps), this one is pull-dominant (back, biceps, core). I’ve been doing the peloton app on the bike and treadmill to keep things interesting.

5. Legs (again!)

This second leg day is a mix of power and accessory work. I might go heavier on lifts or switch to unilateral movements like Bulgarian split squats and step-ups to challenge stability and build balance.

6. Cardio

This is a lighter cardio day—think zone 2: steady-state walking, a long outdoor hike, or dancing in my kitchen. It’s all about moving without stressing.

7. Rest / Active Recovery

Rest is a weapon. I use this day for walking, mobility work, maybe some yoga, or just listening to my body. Recovery is what makes the rest of the week effective.

💡 Why This Split Works for Me:

• Balance: I’m hitting every major muscle group without overtraining.

• Burn + Build: Strength and cardio work together to support fat loss while preserving muscle.

• Consistency > Perfection: I’m not working out hard every day—I’m moving smart and staying consistent.

💍 Final Thoughts:

Getting wedding ready is about showing up confident, grounded, and energized for one of the most important days of my life. This workout split helps me do just that—and enjoy the journey along the way.

If you’re planning a wedding (or just want to feel your best), you don’t need to overhaul your life—just find a rhythm that works for you.
