First point is that my training style has changed a lot over the years and even more so in the last two. I really benefit from resting properly now. I fairly sure that the one thing that has always stayed the same is that I train chest, back, shoulders and then legs. No matter how many sets or reps or days on or off, the order is (usually) the same. I've also realised that training heavy for low reps (if done properly) hits my CNS hard and needs a lot more rest than training for hypertrophy. I'm also a big believer - as I'm sure most of us are - that a training plan is a must. That's not to say that having an occasional day of 10 x 10 while mostly doing 5 x 5 is a disaster. If it breaks the monotony then it can't be too bad. But get back on track again asap. Another reason for having a plan, and as I've aged I've become more convinced of this, is that rest days are rest days. No 'I'll just bang out some bench presses or deadlifts' because I absolutely 'need' to train! That might have worked when I was 30, but it sure as hell doesn't work now I'm 54 But obviously, this is just me. Everyone is different and everyone should experiment and find out what works best for them and focus on that. |

I'm glad this topic came up. I did mostly chest and upper body when I first stated working out in high school (I guess I didn't have any friends who wouldn't let me skip leg day lol). I need to get on a good routine that targets legs and lower back a lot (after my back injury heals of course). One thing I have noticed is that I use to train with 12-15 reps per set, but last year I kinda started the Bill Starr 5x5 Intermediate Linear program which does only 5 reps per set. And let me tell you that my max bench skyrocketed! So I'm trying to do 5 rep sets now when trying to improve my maxes. So who has a good training program for bird legs here? (That's me haha).

I've tried a ton of different workouts when I wanted to just reach the size I had in mind I trained very heavy to failure on a 2 day on 1 day off split. I still train heavy but change to lighter weight eow. I have learned more is not always better,I get a lot more rest in these days and I see better gains. I never get too fancy with programs to me weights weight I just try and change it up here and there. I focus way more on details , fullness, and separation in my muscles now. But imo muscles are made in the kitchen when I really dedicated myself to eating right is when I started making my best gains in the gym.
