I thought the same thing. 
Looking jacked!
I have based my programming off of a loose interpretation of the conjugate method for a while now. That’s why I switch exercises and rep schemes each week. The main difference for me is that I have no prescribed weights to hit on any lift. So I’m doing more of a conjugate maintenance routine. I feel like, if I accomplish nothing else, at least I’m keeping the muscles guessing and the variety sure is more fun than doing the same exercises over and over again.

Good to see you post. You have been quiet for awhile.
You guys are leaving me in the dust. I include OG and his Vette in that group.
Expecting Dr release today to resume workouts. Dr. had advised if stitches broke I’d bleed a lot. That, and wife getting distressed over changing bandages, kept me out of gym.
Not even pushups.

I hope you have a speedy recovery. I’ve wanted a Corvette since I was a kid.
Watched the video you recommended. Dave’s handwriting is worse than mine. It deserves a closer look.

It wasn’t that long ago I was using this same rack when a young guy pulled up a bench directly behind me and sat on the end of it. I told him that I didn’t want to put my butt in his face. What I wanted to say was “Dude I’m a guy in his 50’s on a high protein diet that has a belt strapped around his his gut and is going to be bending over holding a heavy weight. It’s your call.”

You should have just unleashed your worst and let him have it. He’d learn real fast.

Thanks, I think switching to a 5x5 was a good decision. I’ll see how far it will take me.

Did the same when I retired. Thought I look like a hair band rocker. Didn’t. Cut the hair but kept the beard.
