Full Body Workouts
Does anyone in here run full body workouts? I’m considering doing them 3 days a week and wondering if anyone has gotten good results from this split. I know it only gives the muscles 48 hours of rest compared to the 72 hours usually recommended but it seems like a good way to shock the muscles with more volume especially with lighter weight/higher reps.

You should figure out what your goal is. Doing a full body workout is hard and not as effective as dividing your body into parts. If I do a full full body workout I get too tired to get the optimal benefit of the workout. It is of course better than doing nothing at all.
Newbie here
Thanks for the add. I’m 46 years old I am a paramedic been in the fire and EMS field for 27 years. I am also married with one child from past marriage. I started a journey last July of 25. I am currently 105 lbs down now starting to bulk up while losing weight. It’s a fine dance with calories.

Welcome. Nice job with the weight loss.
Built a new homegym
I have long been thinking about having a new homegym setup. It's now done. I went with the Force USA G1 and the Freak Athlete ABX Weight Bench with all attachments. Overall this setup fits my needs. It provides cables that I have missed for many years. I also threw in a barbell. Yes I have "sinned" and done bench press. It felt great so that is something I will do once in a while. Maybe each 3 weeks, but with lighter weights for more reps. The ABX bench is expensive, but it's solid. Very solid and highly flexible. The dumbbells are Trulap 92 lbs version (42 kg). I am also quite happy for those. The G1 also comes with a pull up bar. Each day I use it for a 30 second hang. Just hanging there also called dead hang. It loosen spinal cord and gives other benefits you can look up yourself.

Maybe it's a stupid question, but what kind are you looking for?
How do you get yourself locked in before a session?
Most guys walk into the gym and immediately lose. Not because they're weak. Because they're distracted. Phone in hand between sets. Looking around the gym. Mentally still at work. You can't build a real mind-muscle connection that way. And without that connection, you're just moving weight around. You're not actually training. I've said it time and time again, when I get into that zone, nothing exists except the muscle I'm working. No noise. No distractions. Just that tight, focused connection between my brain and the rep I'm doing right now. That frequency is hard to develop. But the men who develop it? They get more out of 45 minutes than most guys get out of two hours. Find your corner. Put the phone down. Get selfish about your focus. That's not an option in here, that's the standard. How do you get yourself locked in before a session, what's your routine before you touch the first weight? Drop it below. 👇

Since I have a homegym I just walk in and lift when I feel ready. It has been a habit for many years. It's just something I do. Won't live without it.

@Keith Hanenian Esq it's become so much a habit that even 20 years ago I couldn't hardly go a week without lifting 😅 Call me crazy. That's okay. My wife sometimes does.😁
