@rougepaper I do Stronger by the Day too. I don't have set days that I lift, I just make sure that I get all four workouts in every week. I practice yoga of various styles and intensities (I have a goal for January to get on the mat everyday for a minimum of 10 mins) and take my dog on long walks when it's not freezing cold. It's -11F where I live this morning! I also downhill ski. Here's what this week looks like:
Sunday: Upper body lifting, Stronger by the Day a little over an hour in the gym. Downhill skiing for a few hours that afternoon and 10 mins of yoga before bed.
Monday: Predictably wiped from the day before, 10 mins of yoga. Rest day
Tuesday: Lower body lifting in the morning. 30 mins yoga class in the evening.
Wednesday: Upper body lifting in the morning. 1 hour yoga class evening.
Thursday: 10 mins yoga, rest day. This is my super long day. Work from 7:30 am-4:00 pm and then graduate class from 4:30-7:30 pm
Friday: 1 hour yoga
Saturday: Upper body lifting and downhill skiing, 10 mins yoga before bed
Sunday: Lower body lifting, 1 hour yoga.
My Stronger by the Day week starts on Monday which is why you see 5 lifting workouts. This is a lot and I don't recommend it for everyone, but I have been doing something similar to this for years and a lot of activity is necessary for healing a disc issue I have in my lower back. Physical therapy exercises daily too!
