I dont think you're overtraining, give it time you'll get used to it.
Hey Lev, i’m all good with it, just wondering if the length of sessions might be having a negative impact on muscle growth/repair.
I’m waiting for my metabolism to slow down in middle age but it doesn’t seem to be, i reckon i could burn a double quarter pounder off just washing the dishes.
Its very variable for each user, start going for 45min sessions

@neilb it depends on different factors. throwing heavy weights around for an hour isn't smart. but controlled training an hour is fine. there is a grey area
Cheers man. Nah i don’t really lift heavy, really try to concentrate on time under tension, good rom and a good squeeze at the top of movement.
Slow and steady wins the race

Hit desired numbers on incline bench press for first time, form was failing on last 2 sets, will plug away at these numbers till form is better on heavy sets.
Some small improvements across rest of movements, but am still struggling to add reps to my dips while keeping form/rom, will keep pushing to add numbers.

29 sets daaaammmn and in 59mins, you have some serious conditioning
Cheers bro, was feeling good today, normaly takes around the 1h10min but today could really reduce my recovery time on my heavier sets from 2.30min to about 1 min so knocked it over quicker then normal.29 sets daaaammmn and in 59mins, you have some serious conditioning
The peds? That would be bloody fast if so
Yeah I Don’t really think so man, just had a really good night sleep and a strong black coffee before i left work for the gym.
@neilb That's a good strategy. It certainly is working for you.
@neilb incline is going up thats important but form is key, go slow and make sure you squeeze.
Cheers Lev, my 2 heavier sets are pretty much 100% effort so i need to keep on these numbers till i can improve and get a good squeeze and pause at the top of movement.
Hey all, just a change of my username, went with a nickname to pay homage to my favourite dogs.
Thanks for your help with that https://www.evolutionary.org/forums/members/eddie-haskell.151031/

I’ll check it out.
My morons are strong enough but, i couldn’t handle them enhanced!
My boy probably could have used something when he was a pup, the fuck heads that had him before us broke his back leg and let it heal on it’s own and when he ended up at the rescue they had to rebreak it and set it properly with a plate attached. When we got him he looked like he was skipping leg day walking round with skinny pencil rear legs.
After proper recovery we gave given him lots of exercise, tug a war, sand dune sprints and lots of swimming so he has got good muscle on his rear now.

Met most of numbers set, need to stick to these numbers till my form is on point at these weights. Did struggle on the heavy sets, took a 3 minute rest between both heavy sets but still got session done in just over an hour, felt well and truly destroyed but.
