Just curious on your leg lifts do you ever do higher reps. Aside from leg extensions everything looks to be in the 3-5 rep range. I know your working on strength and that is the ideal range to stay in, but I have seen some lifters do a finishing set or exercise with higher reps and was just curious on your thoughts on this. Thanks!

Probably wide im guessing...approximatley 12-14 inches maybe.

Yep, I've been keeping my grip about shoulder width. Such a different feeling than having my hands close together (6 inches or so).

I like doing my upright rows in the smith machine. Curious if you keep your grip wide or narrow? I used to always do them with a narrow grip, but over the past few years started using a much wider grip and love it.

i would say a combo of different things could help keep you on the platform max. from an anabolics stand point, keeping npp and eq pretty much rear round with one of the other. fish oil and other anti inflammatory supps to keep the joints as healthy as possilbe. from a pre hab rehab stand point getting graston deep tissue and good chiro work done as often as possible. from a training side, i would say look at what the top older dudes do. those guys are all jacked up and are still going. maybe you can take some of what they do and it may help you in training and preperation while keeping you healthy and able to perform.

Thanks Brother. Everything seems to be falling in place with no major pain issues. Just a whole lot of DOMs from the 4+months off. I will be training a lot different from now on. Im easing into this as not to aggravate things by jumping off the deep end and pushing things to the limits.

Looks good brotha. Looking forward to following your training log and hopefully seeing you back on the platform.

Thanks Yohimbe!!

I'm your biggest fan bro and you already know that. If you can compete again that would be terrific. However the most important thing is your health. You only have one body bro. Treat it good.

Re: MaxSeg's Attempt at a Training Log (Again)

When you compete it is about how much you can lift. I have zero interests in aesthetics, abs or separation. Im not a bodybuilder by any definition.

Get your lift on!
