Which do you like working best upper or lower body - lower
What's your favorite exercise -deadlift
Whats your least fav exercise - Bench press or any chest exercise
How long do you lift approx each session - 30 min
How many times a week - 4-5 times
Do you lift fast with little rest between sets or slower with more rest - fast
Do you do high reps or Low - high now low when younger
Do you lift lighter weights for reps or moderately heavy to heavy weight -light for reps now slower with more rest heavier weight
Do you do many of forced reps - not anymore much ... when younger last 2 sets of each exercise
Do you do many rest pause sets - still do this ... when younger I did it a lot for certain exercises
Do people at gym ask you many questions about your lifting - not now ... when younger a lot as i was very intense when I lifted and weights I used were relatively heavy, Younger kids always asked me if I was a juicer... I said I ate my wheaties every morning lol
Do you have a set routine when you walk into the gym or do you play it by ear - I new what area of body I wanted to do and just picked exercises as I went along. A lot of times certain machines or racks were not open so I would look for what was available and do that.
Have you ever competed - Yes ... 3 times, awesome learning experience the dieting the hard lifting, the cardio, the gear and hitting the timing right on... very challenging ... hate posing.
Do you lift because you love to lift or cause you like the way it makes you look - I would say both but more the first, each time I went in I picked the exercises I liked and that I thought would give me more strength... and I went hard at it. After workout, the endorphin rush and the exhaustion were great
Other - as I have aged I have had to reduce my weight so now I do a high rep light weights each set to failure... about 25 reps. I don't do this with deads or squats ... always less than 10 reps for these and a lot of sets
