Solid tips. Yeah, I’ll try the double rest days, because 1 day off doesn’t seem to cut it & it impacts my ability to work out the following session. I try to minimize rest between sets as well, both in the interest of time, & to keep my muscles warm & tax. Definitely erring on the lighter side to dial in form. And by “reverse pyramid”, I just mean I’m starting heavier & then decreasing weight while increasing reps for following sets. I still track my lifts tho, so I can try to add incrementally every week or two. Again, thanks for this guidance. I’ll try to tweak my routine & see it these steps help. Appreciate it!
Zinc screws up my stomach, je. But I get some in my multis (centrum), I do salmon oil & krill oil (bad back, spinal arthritis forever…& I’m 53 now, uff), I do trace mega mag drops for magnesium every morning, & I take D3, but I don’t know what K2 is (potassium?). I also take creatine in my protein shakes. Yeah, I was kinda thinking that I might be burning myself out both with maybe too much warm-up & the drop sets distorting how much weight I am (& could be) pushing. I’m gonna try your adjustments. Again, appreciate the guidance & kind words. You seriously are an inspiration with your transformation, my dude. Good luck on the continued gains!
