  1. Whats working for older guys?

    haven't done this before, so I hope I can train my muscles to be used to short but all out and not hold anything back for multiple sets.
  2. Whats working for older guys?

    I am doing warm up sets at 50% weight, and then 1 8 rep set, all out. I do pulling one day, pushing, then legs. The workouts are shorter and intense. If I do the all out set and can do 12 reps, I will do a second set. If I were doing full body workouts like I used to do, I would be doing as...
  3. Whats working for older guys?

    So, the last few days, since I've gone to this 3day split, I try to make my workouts as intense as I can. Not that I didn't workout hard before, but I'm trying to be explosive on the full weight sets. I have noticed I am sweating profusely like I'm prone to do, but haven't really in awhile. I...
  4. Whats working for older guys?

    I try to have three good meals a day, plus morning and afternoon snacks with quality protein and the post-workout shake. I target roughly 150 grams protein/day and do try to drop 300-400 calories on non-workout days. Right now, I am doing a 3day split workout and I run it ABCABCX and take...
  5. Cutting isn't working out. Why?

    have any idea how to figure out a calorie burn estimate for HIIT? I realize, a person can do HIIT with many different activities, duration, etc. The only real constant is intensity, that you are all out.
  6. Cutting isn't working out. Why?

    On Livestrong.com, if you set your goal to lose weight/week and it tells you 1600 cal/day, I eat 1600 to drop weight, and then increase intake on workout days by the amount of cal. I estimate I'm burning? It is already taking into account the deficit I need to drop weight, correct?

  8. Whats working for older guys?

    Thanks for the info, knowbull, badrad, and healthblitz. You helped me figure out part of my problem. When I wasn't getting anywhere because of my adrenal issues, I worked harder and watched my diet, meaning cut calories, which probably exacerbated my problem. I am learning a lot! thanks guys

  10. Article: How Relevant Is Nutrient Timing?

    Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions! I guess a good step for me would be to look up this info on the protein I consume and plan my daily diet and workout accordingly. I have never had trouble with results, until my body went out of balance. It has been pretty demoralizing...
  11. Article: How Relevant Is Nutrient Timing?

    So, the whey is better suited for increasing my overall protein, but the timing really isn't that important?
  12. Article: How Relevant Is Nutrient Timing?

    How would I go about figuring out the right amount of whey, dextrose, and creatine to consume pre and post? Is it best to consume only pre and post, and stay away from on days off of weight or resistance training? Would it be beneficial pre and post for HIIT?

    what is a good resource to learn about step load periodized training?
  14. Whats working for older guys?

    I am not going to introduce a stack until I am back in balance. I just figured I would get info from those with experience now, so I would have the best info when I am ready. I have actually found that I can't lower the intensity and be satisfied with my workout. I am doing a little lower...
  15. Please Help

    Are you currently under or recently been under extreme stress (physical, mental, emotional)? I went through some pretty rough times and I was in decent shape, but the long term affect of the stress messed my hormones up. I am currently on whole-food supplements and have become a lot more...

    I see the posts about higher rep sets! Is that better for us older guys? What is an effective product to block and/or reduce estrogen?
  17. Whats working for older guys?

    For you guys with experience, what would be a good first time product/stack? I am almost 40, was getting in pretty good shape, but marriage issues and work stress killed my body. I have the horrible addition of about 17-20lbs of fat in the midsection. Basically, the stress had my body...
