Hi all,
I have been running the beginner 3 day template for 12 months now and have made very good progress although I am now at the point where soon I will be only able to meet the prescribed reps on my last set.
My question is this. As long as I am enjoying my workouts and continue to make progress, can I keep running this template for as long as possible?
I really like this template as it fits in with family, work and other sporting commitments.
Cheers.

Heck yeah, if you are making progress and not getting bored go for it.
Jim recommends adding your 5 or 10 lb every cycle for 5 cycles, then going 3 cycles back and using whatever weight that was. So basically you go forward 5, back 3.
