Programming and Prioritization

[powerup79]

How often do you guys write yourself a new mesocycle? Do you believe that if you want to prioritize a certain body part or parts per a mesocycle that the best strategy is to bring your other muscle groups down to maintenance volume? And how do you determine a "maintenance volume"?

my strategy is all about conditioning the muscles and stressing them out. i am not competing, i just want to look good and have muscle mass

I usually change my training up every 8 weeks
i lay out my training ahead before im in the gym not to waste time

so i have a log where i write down my upcoming training, machines, bars etc and reps X sets etc
every 8 weeks I make changes based on possible injuries or how my muscles look

i dont do exact mesocycles but i do plan everything out

oh and 1 time per week 1 do the big heavy lifts with full body training no matter what

I used to when i was younger and training other people, not so much now

Nice reply lol.

But seriously I'm only too aware of how some so-called PT's will come up with grand sounding names for simple stuff. And if you're not making progress then it means less than f'all.

For me maintenance is kinda simple - do the same stay the same.

I change training routine every 3 month and body parts daily
