Yep,

this def happens to me. Same as you I eat dinner around 5-6pm. Then I usually go to the gym around 7-8pm and get home kinda hungry.

I start off having a camomile tea (love the one with vanilla and honey),if this doesnt do it I have pre preared frozed berries.They dont really fill be up but at least I feel I have eaten something. 

The other thing I do to avoid it is go to bed a little earlier only if I have just come from the gym its hard to go straight to bed without winding down.I would love to hear other suggestions..

Hi Fender,

In regards to a program its a good idea to work opposing muscle groups on the same day ie if you work your biceps work your triceps after.

If you do abs do back extentions after. Its a more balance workout less chance of injury.

20lbs is pretty heavy so try compound exercises if you are going to use these weights. This is where you work more than 1 mucle in an exerice.

eg :

Bench press 2X10(chest and triceps)

upright row2X10(upper back and biceps)

working arms one day and legs the next is a good idea sarting off cause it allows rest time. As for abs you can work them every day,try and vary the crunches. If you have a stablility ball all the better.

 

Hope this helps,

Claire
