I keep it short and intense as much as possible.
I'm not trying to be ripped like I once was, happy with the way I look and just need to tighten up a little more so I won't be killing myself with cardio.
Let my diet and workouts take care of it.

PENDLAY ROWS 10X3
225X3X10

Wednesday was my off day but still busy cause as soon as I get home I pick up my daughter and head to pitching practice to catch for her. Took a nice one right in the shin when the ball hit short and bounced up. Not my first and won't be my last..lol

Really like the alternating set approach. That way each body part gets over a minute rest but you are only resting a minute between exercises.
Diet is still going good, not doing anything specific just IF and making sure I get enough protein and fat in. My carbs fluctuate on how I feel that day.
Plan on tightening it up closer to summer time to shed a little more fat off but for now just training hard and eating till satisfied.

I will probably train 6 days a week until they start softball games then scale back to 4 days with some conditioning on my off days when I can.
 
Alternating sets are killers! Great job, Red!!! I love and miss playing softball!

I will increase weight by 5 pounds.

For my 6x3 exercises I will increase to 6x4 then 6x5 before increasing weight. I have had good success last year with a slow progression for adding size.
Decided to start cutting back to 4 days a week for my workouts cause softball season for my daughter is about to start and will spending some more time on the weekday and weekends attending her games. This way I can work around her schedule and get all my workouts in.

I have to stick to this routine for at least 12 weeks so I can see how it works and for me to make some progress.
PCT is going into it's last week and has been great.
A week into X-Gels, EP1C, DermaStrength and Transform and it seems I have tightened back up and weight is slowly creeping down.
 
Woohoo! Great workout! You can do it!!!! Softball and training!!!!
 
Strong CGs Red.

I like simple but effective workouts and my legs are feeling it this morning. Look forward to hitting some upper body this afternoon!
 
With all your rest time variations and such I wouldn't say it's simple, but appears to be very effective.
 
Heavy numbers!!! I don't like split squats!!!!

I also forget to mention I have been using Olympus Conquer and Vitality. Both solid products!
The EP1C and DermaStrength must be kicking in good cause I am soaked by the end of my workouts now.
Today and Tomorrow will be off days. Today was scheduled day off but tomorrow is the first softball scrimmage so going to go watch my daughter play ball.
 
Last two days have been off days and it felt good. I had been training 6 days a week the last few weeks so two days off in a row was needed.
Going to be back hitting it hard today. Also going to starting tightening up the diet a little more by tracking my macros.
Weight is staying steady at 265 so going into my last week of PCT and haven't lost any size.
 
Strong OHP Red!
 
PCT is done and I have to say from how I feel it was another good one. Weight stayed the same, the only thing which is to be expected are my muscles don't have as hard of a look to them but definitely put on some quality size.

Using a natural stack right now of X-Gels, DermaStrength and EP1C. Tapered down to on pump of Transform to assist with any estrogen rebound.

Taking this week off as I have been going strong for at least 6 weeks and that is usually my breaking point where I need some rest.

Going to start working on leaning out a little the next few months before my summer cycle.
 
Awesome work!! Enjoy your rest!! You've earned it! I know what you mean about missing the hard look/feel! I definitely miss the look/feel the osta gave me!

Yeah it's like you have that look of just working out all the time. Also love how my body can handle the extra carbs during a cycle, have to be a little more careful once I come off.

Yes and I am playing with my grip for them also.

Yeah, it's a little goofy at first. I have to do the hands crossed at the neck, can't do the elbows out front/hands straight back under bar method. Only problem with hands crossed at neck, is if you are wearing a shirt with no sleeves and you get a little sweaty, the bar wants to slip down. Kind of mastered it now though. Kind of.
 
Yeah that is the one I will have to go with. Forearms are not flexiable enough and it is very uncomfortable.
That's why I wanted to start with just the bar and slowly work my way up. Really concentrating on bracing my abs as well.
