Wow, awesome post!

It forced me think about my own fitness goals. Time for a change!

Does anyone have a link to work out that would fit these principles? Also I push to failure which makes me a cripple days afterward. So applying what they were talking about in this thread. Would it mean end while you still got one more?

or two more....or three. :)

I didn't want to start a new thread, so I figured that posting this here made some sense.

I've been cutting for a while and just guessing I'm probably under 20% body fat. Its not entirely where I want to be, but its not what it use to be so I'm happy with that. Now I'm going to be go on a bulking phase for a couple of weeks. My dilemma is I've gotten in the habit of waking up and going to the gym to do cardio (usually HIIT) on an empty stomach. I don't want to give that up. Would it effect me gaining mass a lot or would it just be a minor thing?

I don't want to give it up because I feel I'd just be completely drained for the day and I wouldn't want that having to sit through college classes all day. Any input would be great. I haven't started "bulking" yet so I don't have much details about how many calories and such I'm consuming. I seem to have good diet knowledge so getting the right kind of calories should not be a problem. It the inclusion of cardio I'm concerned about.

I would MASSIVELY agree with the first point. To many people go into the gym and train for hours and hours. You can get way more done in an hour than 3!

I guess I am the exception! I am 45 yo, just retired out of the Army (Infantry) and just getting back to the gym. In the military it was all "praworkouts...in other words, carrying heavy rucksacks for long distances, pushup, sit ups, you know...the same old same old.
I started on a 4 day routine (2 on/1 off/2on) and after reading this have seen the errors of my ways. From now on it is basics,basics,basics!

Thank you for teaching an old dog new tricks!
