It's awesome when you get in that groove. Keep an eye on your strength though, it can actually plateau if you over train and don't give the body time to recover. I've got a sweet spot of 4 sessions MAX per week to keep the strength gains going, and actually as I've hit mid forties I'm getting steep gains at 3 per week. It's as if you need less training to achioeve the same gains as you get older. Is your strength/numbers still going up?
Be careful mate. I don't know how old you are but by your early forties your body isn't healing the way it used to and tendon injuries are common. Take rest days. Never train the same muscle 2 days in row. I speak from experience after 30 mths and several ops to try and fix my elbow tendons. The right is 50% torn and whilst the left has been repaired, the thing still swells up doing exercise.
Cheers boys, I’m 35 now so I definitely need to be mindful. I probably am overdoing it slightly as my back has plateaued a bit for sure. I think I might finally start doing some cardio as I find whenever I have a rest day I’m much more likely to miss another day or do a half arsed session. For my mental health it does me the world of good going almost every day. Some days I go and just do a bit of arms and stretches etc.
Its for pushing the protein around, covered in eggs and steaks first thing...
The thing about sled pushing is that it will make you absolutely BRILLIANT at pushing a sled. And maybe make your calves a bit stronger. I guess if you play sport it could be good but otherwise for me its a slightly low value use of training time. GM Vauxhall Conference compared to the La Liga of Squat/Bench/Deadlift.
