I used to break up my workouts but now I do cardio two days in a row (stairs / Elliptical rotation) and then one day of lifting. Sunday is fun day with guns and barley Pops. I stretch 15 minutes before I work out. My lifting is a full body with 10-15 reps on each body part, 3 good sets. When I turned 50, I said Im going to kill it and was lifting my ass off, benching 315 for triples bla bla bla..damn my elbows hurt, back hurt, eff that.
Now my goal is to not look like shit and not aggravate my back. I just want to wake up and feel good. Im 56, age is a huge consideration to your workouts. The biggest key is to "just do it", good luck with your progress.
quick thoughts: Hard legs once a week is fine, let them recover between biking etc. Switch up and add dumbells. If your calfs don't look great, do them everyday. Change your workout often, listen to your body. Im sure you look great and feel great, good luck.
