could be the weather....less dampness.

I think you need to find a nice balance of workout volume and frequency to keep yourself going.

But can I make strength gains laying off like that -

It takes repetition to move that bar properly...

And repetition causes my oldness to shine through

Dr. Ken makes gains training once every 2 days.

repetition doesn't have to happen with heavy weight. it can be done with the bar or with a broom stick.

Agreed it is amazing what the humidity an constant changes in air pressure in the northern parts can do.

So jealous



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
