  • thanks for the advice,

    I follow a pretty standard bro-split 5 days per week, but she's said she doesn't want to train that often,

    I thought stronglifts as she can keep it fun through the progression and use the app to keep tabs on it,

    Also... her doing squats three days per week is going to be beneficial for me, no?

  • Well spotting people builds trust, no? ;)

    If she wants to bring up a bodypart, it's a bit of a different ballgame. As in, my legs have always been quick growers, so it's my upper body that needs more attention.
    For some squats don't built the glutes (behind) as much as deadlifts.

    I'd go for fun first, that stuff comes later once you know what you want. Any weights improves fitness.

    As others said there's women fitness pages. They annoy me a bit (all this about resisting chocolate, feck off..) but there's lots of other women there so may work for her.

    If she just wants to train with you for fun then any proper program works ^_^

  • Yeah she wants to "tone" which despite my arguments to her is still believed to actually be a real thing.

    I'm the same as you, i've got tree trunk legs and with good definition and decent calf size (hardest bit to grow) but my upper body never balanced, I've focused on heavier sets for everything above the waist and its brought me up to proportion
