I have that also for a few key lifts for me like bench and squat. This shows my weekly volume (weight x reps x sets) over the last year and-a-half for bench press. You can see early on I was just...

Just thought I would share some current goals and data as some might find the charts interesting.

I am currently lifting only two days per week while I spend time on another hobby (archery).  I...

Yes I can see a difference in body fat. Fat loss happens much faster than building muscle.

You are way too worried about minor details with the nutrition. Our TDEE and daily calories can’t be measured exactly so if you shoot for a 200 calorie surplus on some days it might actually be 100...

3 months is not very long to see a big visual difference in muscle mass. Fat loss yes...

To the original question - no way I would do a slight surplus. I lost 65 lbs over 1 1/2 years so it was slow but I also added some muscle as PP and ID explained because I was overweight and...

LMAO, I am going to have to remember to block you on any posts where I share videos in here from now on LOL.

That’s freaky seeing my mouth move like that and the wrong voice. Pretty good there...

She definitely just shakes her head. I was serious that I really do dance around between sets, I mean what else are you going to do? Just stand there? Of course not after heavy squats and I did have...

He looks great and you have made good progress yourself, keep it up!

I did workout in high school for a few years and had a good build and then stopped except for 2 months in my mid 20's. I then gained weight and was fat in all of my 30's and 40's until I started...

I already had this reply typed up before I saw your edit so I will post it anyways:

The programming is following The Bridge by Barbell Medicine with some minor tweaks.  The target RPE stays at 8...

Awesome, keep at it!

Good luck with the surgery! Once you start back it’s possible that the fresh start may give some momentum to become stronger than you are now.

lmao

And yes I actually do this between every set whether the camera is on or not. Hence - why I workout at home.

Still Plugging Away

I mentioned a while ago that I was going to reduce my workout frequency while I spend time on another hobby (archery). I thought I would come on here and let you guys know...

I will be 52 years-old in a few weeks and the endorphins/testosterone or whatever released during lifting along with the music blaring in my headphones makes me feel like a teenager!

...

Definitely not too much volume for anyone lifting more than a few months. It seems strange to add "for a natural" onto your title, the vast majority of us are naturals.

Also I like doing legs...

My blood pressure was getting high and I was looking at probably ending up on some meds. But when I started working out and lost weight at 49 it dropped significantly and is well below 120/80.

Exactly! I have not had issues with tendinitis but I use the cobra grips to be proactive. I have never had pain on the inside of my elbow but have had some numbness. That was enough to convince me...
