Just interested about how often people are really pushing themselves to test their max and set a new PB?
Do you only do it in a planned and calculated manor to peak for, or plan for a competition? Do you go for it whenever you're feeling particulary good in the gym?

Do you try and smash it every time you step foot through the gym door?

I train with some young lads (18-28) occasionally and whilst they don't try and smash it every work out they certainly try it out more often than I do.

normally i always try to lift my max if not up it
but on low cals at moment thats just not possible
but yeah normally would try to lift my max if not extra

I don't really try to max out very often these days. Did all that 20 odd years ago and just not worth the injury risk now. I prefer to add extra sets and reps when I want to push myself.

I know where you're coming from Andy on the low cals/carbs front! You need those f@#king carbs at times!

i believe tht everything has its own proper place and time.. and the only time tht i try to lift the world and to increase my nervous system in order to handle larger loads for hypertrophy training is on my blast cycle and then i switch to hypertrophy mode to increase muscle density .. when i get into a high cruise cycle..
