Training routines

[Anita Blumpkin]

I never write down or plan my training ahead of time. I train what's not sore and prioritize legs and shoulders. I walk in the gym and go for it. I thought I'd write down what I'm doing each session as I do it and share with the den. Might give others ideas for workouts or might raise questions. Have at er!

How fast are your workouts?. How much rest between sets? Are you finding yourself getting strong quickly now that you are back on food?

Ya definitely feeling stronger and way more energy. 1-3min typically depends how gassed I am and what set types I'm doing. I always watch my heart rate and wait till it drops down between 90-120. Again depending what set types I'm doing.

That's how I do it also. More interested in keeping the weights a little heavier than in making an aerobic activity out of it. Thanks.

Some people in my family have asked do I do cardio off season to stay healthy. I reply "don't need to if your working hard in the gym your heart rate should shoot up during heavy lifts especially on leg days."
I have gotten myself a spin bike for at home but with the intention of growing bigger Quads by using it not so much for cardio.
I'll use it loads during cutting phases of course though lol ya I lift what weigh I feel is make the maximum tissue damage. That's not always super heavy it depends what movement I'm doing. Back to shoulder pressing 40's for sets of 8-10 though so I'm definitely feeling stronger again.
