Heres the deal. I really enjoy following the westside template for my workouts…2 ME days and 2 DE Days. The problem is that my volume is probably too high and I am not recovering. With that being my known problem, I still can’t seem to solve it.
Like many of you, I not only go the the gym for my health but I also go to beat the piss out of myself and relieve some stesses. I don’t want to go on DE day and just do one main exercise, even if I am supposed to be putting forth the most power I can…what I want to do is to keep going with other body parts and trying to obliterate them (and more often that not that is exactly what I do).
How many days do most of you guys train? I am in my mid- thirties and have been training for about 14 years. I know I am supposed to lower the volume and train more intensely more often. The issue is I don’t feel I can “beat myself up” enough in those short, but intense sessions (i.e. Six sessions a week).
Now that this is clear as mud…any suggestions?
