We are at similar points. My training age is at most four years. I don't lift exclusively and have an equal amount of aerobic/anaerobic conditioning. Monday (Pull) and Thursday (Push) are true lifting days, with Tuesday and Fridays being MAPS training. I take Wed, Sat, and Sun off. Intra-workout rest (lifting days) varies but declines as it progresses. For example, the first superset has 2:00 rest between sets, then bumps down to 1:30 the next superset, and finally 1:00 the last superset (the heavier, more complex motions are at the start of the workout). I was just given Cleans (with Squats) for the first time ever about 1.5 months ago, and they are an evolution for me. They absolutely fry me, and I'm not even doing anything heavy. Very complicated motion for me, and I've had a tough time adapting to the new stress. I've had some Tuesdays where I've just not recovered well enough and bump every day ahead by one. It's really put pressure on my sleep quality, but I am finally starting to be able to tread water. Total workout times average around 1.5-2 hours. I usually eat a cup of rice about two hours before I know I'll be hitting my first working set and sometimes I'll down a tablespoon of honey if I want to make sure I have no fuel issues... but it's been a long time since I've run empty. Maybe one day I'll be able to add more, but for now, this has done me well enough. I just turned 50 and look pretty good for my age... not so much compared to anyone here but definitely held against the general population.
