Ya’ that pretty well describes me, but that is not the topic at this moment.
I had an emailer ask what my normal (prefered) lifting routine consisted of these days and it is best described as “Straight foreward & simple”.
Monday:
Shoulder press
Bench
Chins
Squats super-setted with Pullovers
Wednesday
Curls
Prone Triceps press
Standing Calf Raises
Seated Calf Raises
Friday
Shoulder Press
Bench
Chins
Deadlifts super-setted with Pullovers
All exercises are done using a 5×5 scheme with the last two sets as the true working sets. Rest is kept to 60 seconds. It doesn’t have to be fancy to work. The rule is simple “Go Heavy or Go Home”.
An my off days I am currently doing Tabata Protocols using a Schwinn Recumbant Bike.
I also teach my son and one of his friends Tong yi Ch’uan-fa three days a week.
I am getting older and don’t recover as quickly as the kids do so
