That workout was not aimless.
Thank you.
Just going in and picking some weights. Not really following a linear progression with my weights.
That ok for now.

Impressive!!! How long does it generally take you to do your workouts? Thanks
Soon to be 49 year old hereā¦
Thank you.
10 minutes max warm up
45-60 minutes lift
60-75 minutes total time.
I train at home. No waiting when I clean up at the end , I set up the next sessionā¦ My kids are grown and out of the house,I have a little more time now,
Just load the plates and lift, that cuts down time, and adds a little conditioning.
. Curls triceps, rear delts are just 2-4sets no rest.

Circuit 10x10. Increased weights every 2 sets.
Definitely did not push the weights.
Anyone have thoughts on āPHA ā training?
Did some curls, triceps, rear delts.
Then 20 minutes power yoga for ā coreā.
Whatās PHA training?
Peripheral heart action.
Iāve read Brooks Kubikās writing. It was developed in the 1960s.
The idea is to do a circuit style training with lighter weights but minimal rest.
I can testify there is no such thing as a āperipheral heartā. It does get your heart rate up, and is a fun workout. Probably doesnāt build much maximum strength, maybe a little strength endurance.
I pick 3-5 exercise, modest weights and just keep going.
Adjust the weights every few sets. Itās easy to under do the weights, then its boring and a waste of time. I like to train quickly so for me itās fun.
An example might be DB BP, lat pull downs, curls , and leg press.
Start easy move up the weights and try 5-10sets of 8-12 reps.Minimal rest. Not more than 1 minute per exercise per circuit. Hopefully closer to 30 second.
Itās something different and for me fun.
