    Talking very good w/o!

    well
    i decided that i should change my routine

    Before i was using push/pull/legs routine

    But on push day, my triceps would be exhausted from doing chest
    so i decided to switch my schedule to doing triceps/back
    and biceps/chest

    About 12 days ago or so i did my last push routine
    and on bench i go mostly for power
    so i always try to get a higher total weight on one of my sets
    basically an all out set.

    I did about what i had been at for 2-3 weeks...

    so I rest for 4-5 days and do back/triceps everything went well i suppose

    but then i took off 7 full days of not lifting

    Today when i went to workout on chest

    I beat the last days bench by over 10 pounds on my all out set!
    When i went to the max-out chart is was at 15 pounds higher than last time!
    This was so amazing and im very happy with it.

    All the rest combined with the triceps workout worked very well!
    And i thought i was going to do bad, because an hour earlier i jogged over a mile and was still tired!

    I cant wait till my tricep workout, im really going to push it
    and rest good, then i want to actually do a 1 rep max-out
    to see what happens

    I've had similar experiences from taking a prolonged rest period after high volume. It's amazing. That's why I've said that one of the best no-cost anabolic activators is rest.
