My approach to weight training, how do I structure my workouts in the gym in my 50’s to train for muscle growth over 50
I’m 3 months into my weight training now as a slightly decrepit bloke in his 50’s and so today I thought I’d share my progress and feelings so far. I’m seeing solid growth in my muscles, my body shape is beginning to change and I feel so much stronger.
Building muscle takes time, its not about what you do for a day, week or even a month it’s about consistent training over months and years and getting enough training done to push your muscles to grow. For me I feel I’m in a positive feedback loop, I’m seeing progress and in the gym, I’m wearing a vest top so I can see the muscles swell and strain which drives me on to keep pushing which then in return leads to more gains and so the cycle continues.
