Default OK I am going for results now

Decided to get an actual gym membership and am going to work solely off of the MaxOT workout schedule.

My current workout is getting results but as usual I am working too many groups too often and not to the max potential. So I signed back up and am printing off the schedule so that beginning next week I will be following it along with the cardio workout they have.

I guess we will see how this goes for me this time, since last time I modified it and failed

I haven't been on MaxOT this time. Lifting all that weight is harder on joints, and I think that's what injured my shoulder while I was on MaxOT. Maybe in a month or 2...we'll see.

Thought you had heard of it of all people :dunno:

It's basically a full on positive failure workout with a solid rotation of all muscle groups throughout a week long session training one major group per day and I will be including their cardio to my daily workout as well.

Yeah I didn't want to start on it cold so the last two months I have been breaking in my muscles a bit at home on my own schedule. Now I feel I am ready to jump back on it without having to worry much about an injury.

Do warm up sets to warm up the muscle group, then weight acclimation sets to get used to heavy weight, then muscle building sets of 4-6 reps with heavy weight, to failure. Use enough weight so that you can do at least 4 reps, but no more than 6. Work each muscle group once a week, doing 6-9 muscle building sets per muscle group. Focus on high intensity for a shorter period of time, instead of working out for 2+ hours and losing energy/intensity during the workout. Work out for no more than 40-45 minutes. Do compound exercises instead of isolation exercises in order to promote overall muscle growth/stimulation.
