High reps low weight
Should I be doing high reps and low weight all the time, or am I supposed to be chasing the rep range scale as I hit the high number raise the resistance?

@Jason Van Loan Not automatically. Adding the set is your overload for now, that extra volume is the win. Weight only goes up once you can hit the top of the range, around 16 clean reps across your sets. When you bump it, your reps drop back toward 12 and you work them back up from there. Don't add the set and the weight in the same jump. Move one variable at a time so your form stays honest and your joints stay healthy.
Hello!
Hey everyone, I'm Adi. A few years ago I lost over 30kg (50 lbs) and have been passionate about fitness ever since. I'm currently focused on staying lean, building muscle, and continuing to learn. Looking forward to connecting with everyone here.

Welcome Adi, 30kg down and still pushing forward, that's the foundation right there. What does your current training split look like? 💪🏼

Most men over 40 are sabotaging their training
Most men over 40 are sabotaging their training and they don't even know it. Not in the gym. Outside of it. You can train perfectly five days a week. Right weight, right form, right mind-muscle connection. But if you're going to bed at midnight, eating junk between meals, and running on stress with no outlet, you are working against yourself every single session. Recovery is where the muscle gets built. The gym is just the stimulus. I protect my sleep like it's a business asset. Phone down early. Eyes covered. Mouth taped. I look ridiculous, and I wake up recovered. That's the trade I'll take every time. I cut out the seed oils, the alcohol, the processed junk. Not because I'm obsessed with being perfect. Because I know exactly what those things do to my recovery, my inflammation, and my hormones. The data doesn't lie. You want to know why some men in their 50s and 60s look and move better than guys in their 30s? It's not genetics. It's what they do between workouts. The gym is 20% of this. The other 80% is how you live. What's the one thing outside the gym you know you need to fix but keep putting off? Drop it below. 👇

Guys I sleep with mouth tape. I also have an eye mask. Best decisions I have made. 👍🏻

Pre workout
Hi Keith, what do you think about pre-workout powder? Does it really help?

I am human and end up using it as needed. I try to find the non stim versions. Working on a line for us under our new supplement brand Tempered. 💪🏻😉
Just found your YouTube channel and I like what I see
I am on a journey back to fitness. In the past 15 months I have lost 67 lbs. I am back to the same weight I was when we deployed in 2003 (profile pic). I still have some belly fat to get rid of, but I am working on building up my muscle to get back in the same shape I was back then.

67 pounds in 15 months and back to your deployment weight, that's discipline, not luck. The belly fat is the last to go but building muscle while you lose it is exactly the right approach. What does your training look like right now? 💪🏼
