I ate something I shouldn't've on Friday and had to delay a very fun exercise session to today which was:pushup: 21 to failurepontoon pushup: 6 reps to failure eachpushup: 6 to failurepushup: 3 to failurepushup: 2 to failurechest flies: 25 to failure eachtotal volume: 4,765kgit's so simple and short yet intense and (for me) effective. the rep counts and volume don't matter, only the rules do:1. do all sets to true failure2. maximum six sets total3. maximum three breaths between sets

I got laughed at when I talked about aiming to get these kinds of gains 5 years ago. by my boss at the time, a bodybuilder who competed in those kinds of pageants. I asked him why he was laughing and he had the manners to apologise and explain that he just didn't think it would necessarily be possible. I suppose he thought my +15kg goal unrealistic but since back then I've reached and exceeded it which is nice for me.the bigorexia is relentless but crikey you learn a lot.
