  1. High/low training: your thoughts?

    I guess so. I can't afford for my legs to blow up (they are large already). I can't imagine running at 245-250. Yet I do not want to sacrifice my hard earned upper body mass.
  2. High/low training: your thoughts?

    Awesome, I'll give them a try, I've just been scared of getting heavier. 235 for 3 miles isn't easy.
  3. High/low training: your thoughts?

    I understand this, I haven't trained squats or deads in 7 years. If I were to train them heavy I would gain pounds of muscle. Each pound gained requires more oxygen to fuel. Also, as far as time consuming, each workout besides the shoulders tris takes about 45 mins. I only rest 60 seconds...
  4. High/low training: your thoughts?

    I'm a Marine, and I have to run 3 miles regularly for time. Added mass from deads and squats makes running exponentially more difficult. I asked for opinions about this split, you have given yours, I appreciate it, even though it wasn't in the form of advice.

  6. High/low training: your thoughts?

    Yeah...did you read the routine?
  7. High/low training: your thoughts?

    I have never seen or heard of the Texas method. I guess I'll look it up. But, I don't understand why you would say something is built around compound movements and not muscles. What does that even mean? There is obviously isolation work in the routine.
  8. High/low training: your thoughts?

    I have been doing a ton of research lately. I have been especially interested in the rep ranges for maximal muscle growth. Optimal growth seems to involve low, moderate, and high rep ranges with their corresponding weights. I saw a workout in flex magazine that I have been running for 2 weeks...
