Ok fellas. Got my PSL order yesterday. It was a little late but they sent an extra duplicate product free and made it worth my while even tho it was not their mistake to correct. It was USPS's mistake. Grateful for that. I have still been keeping the same diet consistently and same general exercises but modifying cardio and sets/Reps. Keep in mind I'm still rebuilding my endurance and stamina after many years out of the gym so I'm having to build up progressively. Not so much regarding strength, as I've mostly regained if not surpassed most of my previous max lifts in the last 4 month. I mean that primarily in regards to endurance on higher rep days making for some pretty long 3+ hour work outs after working all day. It is most definitely coming along and improving though. I'm starting to make it through my workouts more quickly and recovering faster between sets which is nice.
I wanted to get some feedback on this. I'm considering rotating a week here and there (3 weeks total, but not back to back) into my regime of hitting multiple major muscle groups in combination in the same workout with a little less isolation and then going back to isolation of specific groups the following week. For example maybe doing flat bench, Incline bench, squats and leg press plus some other auxiliary lifts in the same day and then the following workout I'd back, bicep, hamstrings, and deadlift... Still working out the specifics but I wanted to know what you guys think about that approach and if targeting multiple major groups simultaneously could potentially help further boost my BMR and burn extra calories/body fat? Much has been written about this approach and it is the foundation my old BFS program. Let me know. I'll post more updates soon. Here is yesterday w pics
