Nah. I'm on a low rep scheme. The body adapts after a certain amount of time so it's good to switch it up. I wanted to go heavy today so I kept my warm up sets low and heavy to prime myself for that lift. Else I'll be warming up with 225lbs x15-20 for a few sets.
watching you video is like a motivation to myself lol
so currently i follow your advise to do high reps high volume,after a period of time i might switch to 5 x 5 for some size and strength gain,giving body a shock..any insight or input ?

Lol i don't like 5 x 5. Tried it but I don't like it. Not a bodybuilder's routine. Good for strength yeah but not for bodybuilding imo.
For strength, 5x5 really bumped the weights I am using now. It's great for a couple of months but no more than 3. It's definitely not for long-term.
could be one of the ways to break plateau i believe in the classic splits or total body (with drop sets or supersets to break plateau or boredom) hahaha

"Aussie kids are weetbix kids "
One of my favorite snack or carb would be weetbix from sanitranium or woolworth home brand weetbix. Its very2 good and cheap. 1serving (2weetbic) has 20grm of carbs with only a gram of sugar. So if you're getting board with oats weetbix would be another choice and it dissolve in water faster compare to oats..
How I usually prepare my weet-bix
1. Mix salad + 4 - 6 weet-bix + 2 whole egg + little water and microwave them for 40 - 80sec.

It's delicious enough by just eating like that. Yea, we will have opportunity to train together once I'm back, that would be somewhere in early July. See you soon
