[QUOTE="Sean Reed, post: 66030, member: 15349"] Hi Vince, I am 54 and still train this way. I have been bodybuilding for 42 years. I do a no rest between sets protocol so the weights are much lighter. Doing so reduces stress on my joints and keeps my cardio robust. I believe this type of training counters any negative impact from the 300 mgs test/week program I am on. Once in a while I will do a regular (90 second rest between sets) type workout and I am usually stronger. Now lets go back and see how this program can be sustained, which I believe is your question. First, I am always done with my workout in 40 minutes. Cardio, weights, everything. If I train this way 2-3 days in a row I take a day off, sometimes more. If you are new I recommend training this way every other day, no more than 4 times a week. I train 5 days a week. Also, you must get plenty of sleep, 8 hours a night to train this way. Finally, I am a 100% gym rat. I LOVE TRAINING, I love martial arts. I quit my college teaching job because it was interfering w/ my training, lol. The gym is the best part of my day, one step down from training my son and one step above being w/ my wife, he he. I realize that I am blessed to live the athletic lifestyles, and am grateful. In short I am fanatical, and I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm with others. Every day is a gift and a blessing. I wish the same for you. [/QUOTE]
