I have switched my routine. They often recommend not doing so( in this case my first routine was SL 5x 5 from 2007). I stare Ted a beginner routine from an online coach in Japan that minimizes accessory work; which is where I was getting despondent because of having roasted said muscle’s inI previously compound exercises.
First day hypertrophy, second day power and third day strength. Don’t ask me the difference between strength and power because I just realized I have no clue.
I was able to do 215 for 3x 8 without needing a spot. I was able to do 155 for 3x 8, 7 and 5. Instead of pull-ups I be been doing high iso lateral rows in a machine and I did 180 for 10,8 and 4.
I’m very much a newb and asking somebody to spot me is uncomfortable. I’ve gotten pumps from a senior member,”not bad for an old guy”, and from football players from a local high school. It’s cool, I feel like a reject, from the outside looking in but it feels good.
I thought about bouldering, we’ve got an indoor climbing gym here but I realize my grip strength is atrocious. As of yet I don’t know what I need to work on. Also yoga, as the weight I pull increases my piriformis stops me from being able to stand straight. I think yoga may eventually help.
