From the non alcoholic beers I've tried

1. Bitburger Drive (BWS)
2. Peroni Libera (Coles/First Choice)


Meh tier
Carltons and Heinekens Zeros, they're ok, but a little sweet. Would rather the top 2 instead



Yuck tier
Holstens, don't bother, the flattest most bland, flavourless thing I've ever had

i do play a lot of golf, few times a week on average across the year. And courses are tough, but i love it. swing changes here and there contribute to the overall body position.

how is it when you catch up with others, and the drink comes out?

I'm fine, I drove the boys around alot on my Ps, but yeah the non alcoholic beers kinda help fill a void.

At the pub it's hard though, so ginger beers/ales is normally what I'll have instead there.

Apparently alot of inner city bars do non alcoholic on tap though, just not in the outer burbs

F**k me, Im glad you posted this. It made me look at the date. 1st of March.Yep newbies disappeared, its basically gym rats onwards till August.

I had complete freedom today my gym was fairly empty, its not surprising I actually hit a few personal bests for the past 6 months. I just took my time and enjoyed myself today. No rush no fuss.

Yeh, I’ve read your posts and I understand your point, what I’m saying is, that shouldn’t inspire a homicidal rage that you seem to exhibit.

I know a guy who was like this once.

This is correct though

Did 4 sets of bicep curls to finish up with last night, 2 of them were drop sets (so I guess I did 6 sets)

Will do triceps with chest tomorrow, then I'll properly hit biceps on Saturday, probably do 10-14 sets with shoulders.
 
Get in there lads.

According to this book I'm reading called 'I was a teenage dianabol freak' the pectorals can handle 20 total sets a week over 2 sessions, 25 sets if you spread them out over 3 sessions, and up to 35 sets a week if you train them everyday (we take sunday off because of god).

If you will it, it is no dream.

I break my week up with

Arms (bis and tris) and Legs
Chest, shoulders and core

Obviously you get some crossover doing shoulders and chest from your arm days but I find it works for me

Thats a lot of sets for shoulders? Is that per week or per workout?

Push/Pull/Legs

I find it relaxing and enjoyable now.

Some bro's recommend, 5X per week, full body work out, but that seems to be smashing body parts every day. I like giving my body the time to recover and rebuild, even if minimal.

I do 20 total sets on pecs + 2X push ups twice a week at the end of pec day. I guess 24 in total.

4 bench, 3 cable, 3 incline.

20-25 sets is probably the right amount for an intermediate natural trainer.

I do 18 sets all in 1 session, but I take the last set of a few exercises to failure, and sometimes I end the failure sets with a few rest pause or drop sets, depending on how the shoulders are holding up. I don't count those mini sets.

All the cool kids are doing PPL so I may sub out the Bro Splits.

I've been looking at doing one of John Meadows mountaindog1 programs.

10-14 sets once a week for mine isn't much

Shoulders are more of a hypertrophy muscle group for me, if I could BB OHP then I'd target it differently, but alas I can't

I'd do something like 3-4 working sets of DB OHP 10-12 reps

Side laterals for 3 sets of 10-12 (started leaning up on the brick wall, works well enough)

Then I'd start supersetting with arms

Would probably do some sort of front raise (DB/heavy plate/ez curl bar) with a curl or a kickback or something

Then hit the rear delts, band facepulls with a curl or band triceps extension

Then incline rear flys with something else for arms that I haven't done

I guess it depends on time, but all up I'd probably get 15-18 sets on shoulders, about 10-12 if I have a lighter day or am pressed for time, around 10 for arms, though have done 14-15 if I felt good (will only do 4-6 sets for arms with back/chest though, my original post was 10-14 for biceps if I'm only hitting them hard once a fortnight)
