I’ve started doing supersets.
The body will always perform to expectation, performance hasn’t dropped…it has improved.
Rest is overrated.
I get into this mindstate where while tired, fatigued, running around all day…
By the time I’m at the gym psychologically there can only be peak performance.
The mind is the biggest part of the gym, and THANK YOU! pf has forced me to get used to using intensity multipliers, to making things harder, and finding ways to do so.
The 75lb dumbbells are getting light, so triceps superset in with them.
So we do the db press, seated row, pullups, dips – all of them everyday.
My pullup ability has improved being I’m now doing sets of 8 all day, supersetting them with seated rows, dips, or smith machine btn presses.
Whether it’s same/similar muscle supersets or push/pull style, it’s going to make you better overall.
I can press a pair of 100s, I’d bet even 120s. I don’t have access past 75s.
NO MATTER!
What you have. Where you are.
I learn so much at pf!
Stuff that didn’t make sense before does now.
Listen to Ken Leistner and load your dips and pullups to between 8-15rm.
Do so much volume the body has to muscle up.
I hear a lot of “you’re jacked” comments lately. It means what I’m doing is working.
Lift daily. Spend as much time as I can lifting. Train multiple times throughout the day.
Fatigue is nothing.
Oftentimes soreness primes you for better performance.
You don’t need a day off!
You need a month or so on.
Keep training until something clicks.
I mostly do the same lifts daily, that’s part because pf = no barbell, part because I get into a particular movement and do it till I move on.
I didn’t expect this a decade or so back when I was new to lifting.
Funny how mindset changes.
I don’t think limits, I think possibilities.
Demand forces performance.
I tell you ; a decade of honest effort gives the best genetics.
Keep biting off more, and keep chewing it.
I get comments like “how don’t you get overuse injuries”.
Cause to me it’s not overuse!
We’re in a soft, low physicality, modern environment.
I have to push!
Man, as designed, is highly physical. So I expect that of myself.
No matter how much effort I put in, I know I could’ve went harder.
It’s a different mentality.
Fatigue?
I’m loving it.
I’ll be training tommorow.
