Awright a little help for a guy gettin old

[MrMondodondo]

Okay, Here's the deal. I'm training hard again and it feels great. Used to be huge but wife,kids,surgeries,job, got me down. I'm back in the groove now.
On Deca and Cyp now and used to do "Intensity Training" AKA Mentzer Bros.
Now that I'm training alone what is a good routine as far as frequency of body parts and sets/reps etc... Any input would be way cool. I'm 40 6'0"
33 inch waist arms just about 18". Want 19-20's. I need somethiing new as I'm gettin stale.

Bro, Im 38 and feel your pain. Im justing back after a long lay off. You know everybody is different in the set- rep department. I say do what works best for you and mix up the types of excercises your doing. My main gauge when Im lifting is I still want to be sore the next 2 days after a bodypart was trained .That way I know Im tearing down muscle and rebuilding. When you stop getting sore change the intensity, poundages etc. Just make sure your still getting sore no matter how long you have been training. IMO

Hey bro, since you are on cycle now...pound the weights and the protien hard...If you need a new "Shock" try what I just did...I just wish I would have found this while I was on my last cycle. I work upper body two times per wekk and legs on Saturday only...for some reason my legs can only stand one training day per week.
I work Chest and Tris on Monday and Thursday...Back and Biceps on Tuesday and Friday, Off Wednesday and Sunday.
Anyway, I cut my Exersizes back to basically five per day. Use the absolute heaviest weight that you can use and still complete the lifts. Try to add 5 punds per week on your compound lift and on your Isolations, go up to 2X10 the next week before adding weight and dropping back down to 2X8. I have made good strength gain on this program!
