I'm sure it's not as obvious when you're not flexing To the left looking at the pic , from your perspective your right shoulder Im always conscious of injuries and don't go too heavy these days like I did in the old days Haha that's supposed to be my good shoulder!! It's the other side that has the tear. Was like 10 years ago, deadlifting. I think the way I'm Posing makes it more obvious and I'm also slightly leaning forward to the left as the stairs are right beside me and I was trying to get into the lighting Yes mate, training smarter before training harder for me now 1 124455 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This last 18 months (I'm almost 39) I've had nothing but injuries. Avoid them wherever you can! Heavy with good form and not too frequently will help. I'd hate to avoid going heavy - that's my primary goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do go heavy but I alternate between doing heavy weeks and then lighter weeks. I focus on the mind muscle connection with lighter weights to feel the squeeze which i can't do with heavy weights, as im just focussed on finishing the movement. Keeps my body guessing and mixes things up a bit. I also listen to it when it's telling me not to push it anymore, the thought of snapping something is enough to make me stop John meadows and even Dr Scott Stevenson advocates pump days in the training styles, something I want to explore more I've got a tad bit of gyno too, not as glaring obvious in the pic but it's there 1 124455 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If bodybuilding/aesthetics is your goal, that makes perfect sense. Avoid injuries like the plague. Consistency is everything in this game and injuries right royally f**k consistency! Just after 35 I had my best years so far, but after 37/38, I started to pick up more and more injuries, some serious. 1 124455 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heavy with good form and not too frequently will help. I'd hate to avoid going heavy - that's my primary goal. Join the club mate... I’m 43 (look at least 10 years younger though ) and the last 8 years have seen me riddled with injuries. The best bit of advice to anyone who’s looking to achieve at any sort of longevity in this sport is, warm up, stretch, RC work, DT massage and don’t lift with your ego. ....... boring as fcuk it may very well sound but nowhere near as boring as sitting at home for 12 months not able to train because of a severely torn RC!! 4 M73, Philfg, invisiblekid and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
