The Mature thread

[Donny]

some solid workouts going on in the Mature comunity... as Long as i feel i´m getting a good workout i am happy with the weights. George tends to Keep it simple straight to the Point as i do and Steve...well he just loves to blast his Body with volume and jay is somewhere in the middle. Wez does volume too but his own Thing with high reps in there too...each has his own Training philosophy.

my weight Drops with supersets...however the stimulus is there. i am enjoying just doing Basic lifts at the Moment. i like supersets too as you know. I have always tried to stay in condition and big muscles were never important, Speed,stamina, skils. School just opened here in Wing chun so i am going to go and see how it is. Driving to Hannover is time consuming and a good friend knows the Trainer there.

Where are you in relation to Hannover? Are you north, south, east of west of Hannover. How far are you from Hannover? If I make the trip this summer to may granddaughter's wedding. I will be about 3.5 hours driving time south of Hannover.

You are located about 4hrs by car from Uettingen, where I will be for the wedding. Celle appears to be a delightful place.

quick question for you guys......


I have been training 20 years now......I am currently 40......but I feel training has gotten better as I have aged......better pumps.....better mind/muscle connection.


some people say that as they get older they don't feel the same way they used to in the gym.....they think their workouts were better at a younger age......I say the workouts get better with age.


let's discuss this.

[Primemuscle]

I believe that I am more focused than I was when l was younger. Aside from a few recent distractions and health issues, I am able to devote more time and energy to my workouts.

Sorry I have been MIA but just buried both in-laws......at 57 my workouts have never been better. I am able to focus more and don't worry about ego like when I was in My 20s and 30s. I don't worry about weight anymore just the pump and slow steady reps with a squeeze.

no cardio today. I tell you i had a probo Training with 3 Russians which was my last customers.. fuck me   2 guys and a woman. One was a Young guy of 20, a woman of 35 and a guy of 38. i had to take the 38 year old aside and tell him i was the Trainer and not him. He kept butting in and just fucking around. i nearly threw him out and then he was quite. They will not be signing a contract, shame because the Young guy was ok.

Tonight was Cardio and Abs.
