Tim Nice training log. Impressive numbers! I recently changed my workouts and have just switched to one body part one day per week. Got some good ideas from viewing your log.
I am doing higher volume. Thought it might be a good way to let my body heal and maybe recover better since I am getting older.
How long do your workouts generally last? Sounds like you have low back issues too. Ever do static holds on the back raises? I have been doing as kinda of a rehab thing. works pretty well and can also fell it in my glutes and hamstrings.
Keep up the good work.

Tim Nice training log. Impressive numbers! I recently changed my workouts and have just switched to one body part one day per week. Got some good ideas from viewing your log. I am doing higher volume. Thought it might be a good way to let my body heal and maybe recover better since I am getting older. How long do your workouts generally last? Sounds like you have low back issues too. Ever do static holds on the back raises? I have been doing as kinda of a rehab thing. works pretty well and can also fell it in my glutes and hamstrings. Keep up the good work. Thanks Grant.........I find more volume and higher reps much more productive for me. I`ve always done higher volume,sometimes too high,but kept my reps in the 3-5-8 range and got strong,but gained nada as far as hypertrophy was concerned. Worse genetics on the planet,but I love the challenge. I credit getting my lower back to where it is now after my injury to doing Reverse Hyperextensions on a machine made exclusively for them. Could barely do a set of 8 with bodyweight,now I get 10 with 120 pounds ,which is not much,but it`s climbing steadily. I`ll try the static holds on hypers today..........thanks for the tip!! In the off-season,my workouts take about 45-60 minutes to complete. Pre-contest,about the same for the weights,but add in cardio and abs and it comes out to 90 minutes most days. Of course some bodyparts are finished quicker than others,but I try not to stay in the gym too long at any one day. I know guys who are in there 2-3 hours,but actual half-hearted training time, comes about to about 30 minutes with zero injtensity............I`m sure you`ve seen your share of this deadwood in your time!
