I'm doing Old Man Texas from the Barbell Logic podcast #17 I think. It's a Starting Strength podcast by 2 coaches. I just could not keep up with higher volume workouts that a 20-something could. I tried but ended up really beat down. Now weights are back to moving up on a good 3-day version of the Texas Method for us 40+ folks.
I attempted the full blown Texas Method as well and ended up getting buried after 6 months of grinding through it. I skipped out on running HLM (Heavy, Light, Medium) because I wasn't aware of it at the time and went straight into the 4-Day Upper/Lower split version of Texas Method. I'm of fan of that podcast, I just got caught up yesterday. I need to go back and listen to it so I can recall how the structure the Old Man Texas.0 -

I have finally gotten back to the gym this past week. 4x total just been a little basic with some light jogging for a warm up x15 min then some body weight strengthening (lunges, squats, planks, Russian twists) and hip flexor movements because I have been battling hip & back pain for a few years and figured it's time to focus on that.
Gonna look into some yoga classes as well.0 -

Volume Day w/ Press
Squat
Warmups and 4x5 @ 285
*First time with new shoes. Do-Win with a .75 heal. Really helped me hit depth and didn't affect perceived weight.
Press
Warmups and 4x5 @95
*Left shoulder starting to feel better on press. Building back up after injury does suck.
Deadlifts
Warmups and 2x5@365
*Stap for second set again. Grip is good for about 2-3 reps then starts to fail. I am not very concerned as I don't plan on competing anytime soon.
Overall
Felt pretty good today and I resisted urge to do a couple of singles on Deadlifts. I love the lift and love doing singles but need to just follow the *kitten* program.1 -
