work out tips
ad
I have a question for seasoned lifters. Im not new to working out rather than just trying to get the most benefit out of my training. Ive always trained my back and shoulders on the same day. I seem to be getting great gains from this but I have been wondering if there is more to be gained by splitting the two up into different days with a rest day in between the two. Any helpful advise would be very much appreciate. Thanks guy's for your help.

If you're hitting it hard enough with real intensity you'd never get through back and shoulders in the same workout. Deadlifts, barbell rows and presses in the same workout is too much to ask, that's a lot of big heavy compound lifts.
I usually work out 5-6 days a weeks and alternate push days with pull days. My rest day is always the day after deadlifts because it is the most stressful on my central nervous system. Catalyst hit it right on the head here. I don't really work shoulders anymore because they get ridiculous but I would never work shoulders and back on the same day. My input was probably not needed but I just wanted to give a second opinion since I'm an old fucker who's been working out for over 26 years.
That's another good point you raise, recovery. Not as easy at our age......
You're right bro. I work out totally different now then i did when i was on my twenties.
I guss you got a point there. I train hard but I guss not hard enough. So ive answered my own question it would benefit me to hit it on separate days and up the intensity of my work outs if I truly want to benefit the most from this cycle. Ive had some great gains but I stand to gain a whole lot more if id just step it up thanks catyst.
