Peter Attia prioritizes completing his four weekly strength training sessions, even if it means moving them to different days or doubling up, over compromising on cardio.

“a typical week for me is going to have three to five bouts of strength training four bouts typically of zone two two bouts of zone five and stability is sort of sprinkled into pretty much every day”

“from a lifting standpoint it's monday wednesday friday sunday is lifting and about i don't know nine months ago i switched to an upper body lower body split”

“no like yesterday sunday would have been a ride followed by lift day but i was on the track the whole day and i knew you know i knew that in advance so i just ended up doing that lift on saturday but obviously was short-changed on the zone two for yesterday so i will pretty much will never compromise a lift i will always get those four lifts in during the week no matter what”

“and then from a lifting standpoint it's monday wednesday friday sunday is lifting and about i don't know nine months ago i switched to an upper body lower body split”

“those lifts have to be done first thing in the morning and not first thing in the morning so morning routine is kind of more about the kids and stuff like that but once they're out the door to school it's around 7 15 7 30 that's when i'll typically live”

“it's you know probably on the strength side six hours a week um so I have to find other ways to to add that demand”

“so Monday is just strength training so that's about uh 90 minutes to two hours when you include the stability training that I do as well so movement prep stability training strength training and that's all lower body that's Monday uh Tuesday is Zone 2 followed by dedicated hour of stability Wednesday is uh upper body strength and stability again 90 minutes to two hours Thursday is a repeat of Tuesday Friday is a repeat of Monday Saturday is Zone 2 in the morning upper body strength repeat of Wednesday in the afternoon Sunday is Zone 2 followed by V2 Max”
