This post is about aging, but also about using or losing it at any age - even as young as 30 or 40... muscle and strength that is. It's a very personal story, about me and my family. So much so, that my finger hovered above the "publish" button for quite a while. I guess I finally clicked and am sharing because I believe this is such an important message
A superset is a weight training technique where you do two exercises in a row, with little or no rest in between. You take a normal rest interval after the second exercise, which is usually one to two minutes. After the short break, you repeat the two-exercise sequence. Supersets are scientifically proven to build muscle in less time. With supersets, you could easily cut your gym time by a third and even cut it in half, making this extremely valuable for busy people.
By fortifying this high protein pumpkin overnight oats recipe with one full scoop of whey, you get a whopping 44 grams of protein, making this a complete meal. The standard vanilla protein that most people have on hand works great, but try pumpkin protein for intense flavor. You can use store bought pumpkin spice seasoning or make your own. Top it off with some maple syrup (sugar free or regular) and it's like eating pumpkin pie for breakfast! Well, almost
Did you know there are at least a half a dozen types of supersets, and one of them is the ultimate way to build more muscle in less time? This training system is scientifically proven, it works for everyone, it's engaging, and it gets you done with your workouts in half the time
You may have heard of drop sets before because they've been around a long time and drop sets are one of the most popular high intensity muscle building methods. Arnold famously used drop sets on barbell curls to build some of the best biceps of all time. Today you see recreational lifters doing drop sets every day in every gym. Maybe you already do them too. But if so, are you sure you're doing them right? If you're doing them wrong, or not doing them at all, you're missing out on major gains...

Today I want to talk about 4-days per week training programs and introduce you to an outstanding and different type of lifting schedule that can build serious muscle with only 4 training sessions per week. I call it 3 X 4 Muscle. This type of training schedule is ideal for people who: 1. Are experienced lifters. 2. Are serious about gaining muscle. 3. Like body part splits (rather than full body training). 4. But are busy and can realistically only train 4 days a week consistently. 5. And or, have felt burned out training more often like 5 days a week, and especially 6 days a week...
Many experienced lifters and physique athletes who want to build muscle train 5 days a week, and a handful even train 6 days a week. But for many people, these higher frequency training schedules are not realistic. As a result, they want workouts that are still effective but only require 4 days a week, or in some cases minimalist programs that take even less time. If you want to spend only 4 days a week in the gym, you may be wondering what are the best 4 day training schedules. In this extensive special report, you'll see many options, some which you may have never thought of before.
The push-pull-legs 3-day split is one of the most popular training schedules for building muscle today. But there’s more than one way to set up a 3 day split. Another famous 3 day split is what I call, “3-day classic muscle.” There are lots of other good workout splits too, like 2 day splits, 4 day splits, even 5 day (“bro”) splits. But if you’re going to do a 3 day split, which is a good choice, which one is best?
