Never change /fit/

I'd probably stick to the same stuff because gym is closed for two weeks and all I have at home is one dumbbell adjustable from 3 to 12 lbs. Also I'm pretty oldass myself

Also when i did dumbbell or barbell OHP in the gym I felt some slightly painful tension in my lower back, but when I do back exercises - different pulldowns or deadlifts I feel nothing wrong.

Yes I do higher rep stuff as well, because now that I am older putting up numbers is not as important as general and holistic health/wellness. I focus more on form and body awareness these days.
I lift only 2 days a week and fill the rest of the workouts with runs, hikes, bjj and yoga.
My goal is to continually improve my health and do things I genuinely enjoy, over some compulsive need to lift as heavy shit as I can like it was when I was younger and used to gym with bros.

Spot fucking on Anon.
32, drank the heavy load Kool-Aid. before, as everyone, snapping my shit. switched to low-weight high rep, never looked back.

I feel like it's a trait of masculine psychology that it's near impossible to get this across to 20 yo guys, the same as I didn't listen when I was 20. We actually need to hurt ourselves to let something enter our thick skulls.

ive tailored my workout routine around what i want: to deadlift heavy shit off the ground, farmers walks for carrying it around and pullups because it could come in handy

high reps/low weight worked for me, certainly seems to be the way to go for hypertrophy if thats your goal just from experience

Recovery doesnt seem to be a problem at the moment although im sure that will change as i get older, altering my sleeping pattern to maximize recovery has been noticeably beneficial to my life in many other mediums that just lifting thanks fit x

i think it's more that you don't really think about getting old and planning for the future until it starts to happen, i know i worry about dying more now at 25 than i did at 20

thinking of re-integrating deadlifts in my routine, following a high rep low weight scheme

Is that what you do? Any tips?

>>42012950
Been recently switching from minimalist beginner strength routines to a custom GZCL template with lots of "bodybuilding" high rep work. It's only been so it's probably mad placebo, but I already feel bigger and tighter, and my joints feel great. Das the shit mane

what do you guys consider as high reps, 10 reps or 15-20 reps?

29. I wasted my 20s doing brosplits with zero strength foundation, so I looked DYEL after five years, shamefully. I'm racing like a motherfucker now to complete SS before I get much older. Looking forward to hopping back on the high reps train when higher weights and getting better results in a few months.

As I get older, I definitely need more sleep and more rest between sets. I rest 5-7 minutes between work sets now.

SS takes a few months, not a decade. And the rest time isn't arbitrary. I know from experience how much time is necessary in order to put up the weight. There's no point rushing it only to fail the set. Results matter more than memes and I'm finally getting results.
