77-year-old natty here, started lifting seriously (with a trainer, five years ago). This advice is solid gold and tells me that I (and my trainer) are on the right track as far as order is concerned. At my stage in life the priorities are lower body strength (to avoid falls, the biggest injury risk for us old geezers) and back and core (to maintain posture). Seems like my trainer got the order exactly in line with what you advance here. Cheers.

Trying to combine strength and hypertrophy, in that order. I am 76, do heavy bench first after warmup (4 sets of 3x205 at 186 bw), then incline dumbell presses alternating with incline dumbell rows for 2-3 RIR, 2 sets, then add triceps extensions and curls to incline work for 2 supersets, trying to get close to failure (only real to failure are incline db rows; versagripped in until they will not move). Once every 4 days - perhaps will eventually go to 3 day intervals if I can recover adequately, or even 2 days. Plan to go to 215x3 next upper body day. So far, so good, after 13 months in gym.

You don't have to jump right to 4 sets of 215x4, try 2 sets of 210 2 sets of 205 for a week or two. Easiest way to hit a plateau is jumping like that. When it feels easy again, bring the rest up.

Then gave myself 3-4 minute break and did 3x205 for 3 sets. The last of 6 sets was the best of the day, and felt like I could do more. Then did 3 supersets of incline db press, incline db rows, overhead triceps extensions, and barbell curls. Will get spotter next wo and add at least 10lb; should be OK if I can do 6 sets of 3x205 without a spotter.

Excellent video. Dr Mike gives a very lucid presentation about exercise order, which is important to use your time in the gym efficiently and to avoid accidental injury. Thirty years ago, I was into power lifting, and I noticed I could injure myself if I did the "tear down" of my smaller fine-motor muscles to exhaustion BEFORE going to lift heavy: If your hands or shoulders are exhausted, you will lose balance with the heavy weights and can drop weights on your own face. My question for Dr Mike is about post-workout recovery: Shouldn't you eat food BEFORE your cooldown? It seems that after a workout, I'm hungry and pleasantly sore, but my vascular tissue contracts so the "workout pump" is gone and circulation of the new nutrients should be inhibited by this contraction. Any post-workout nutrition should be going to my head if circulation is mostly to my daydreaming brain. But I'm thinking that if you follow up eating with a cooldown, then you should maintain flow of the nutrients, and recover faster. Maybe this is in another video, so I'll go look.

As a dad with little time my workouts always follow the rule "from big to small". Upper back > chest > mid/lower back > lateral raises. Repeat 4x times or until failure and im completely done and cooked in about an hour. That's a nonstop set after set, almost no breaks. It's kind of like cardio too. After I'm done I just finish with bicep/triceps till total failure, and it's usually 1 or 2 sets for them, because I've already worked them on back and chest. And no legs (for now) because I cycle every day. I think it works good for now. If I had the time to split it into a PPL routine, I'd love to do more kinds of excercises, just for the variety.

Also taking longer breaks between different exercises makes a huge difference. E.g. I used to do super sets of pike pushups followed by regular pushups and of course the general fatigue ramps up from set to set, so I seperated the two exercises and did 3 sets of pike pushups first and then moved on to pushups after I finished that exercise. Waiting for eg. 3 minutes will result in a fair amount of fatigue in the shared muscles of both compound movements these exercises, in the beginning to a point where I felt I would not be able to make the most of my following pushup sets. Incresing from 3 min rest to 6 min of rest between exercises did all the difference. I wen as far as leaving 10 min between these two and do something else (warmup, light cardio to keep the heartrate up etc or you can do legs inbetween if you go for a full body workout), but leaving 10 min made me feel fresh and having a better muscle-mind connection and bringing these muscles better to failure than if I waited for less time or doing super sets (if they work for you that's fine, for me they sadly don't).

I've found that for me, antagonist sets have been far more effective than push/pull because I'm not having to compromise exercises later into the set because I've burned out a supporting muscle early (ie. triceps being burned out because I've done bench press first). I also rotate my starting sets to try and keep things balanced (ie. if I started with chest last time I'll start with back next time). Obviously I can understand that if I was more advanced and having to work the big muscles much harder to get stimulus then I might not have enough gas in the tank to do back/chest effectively on the same day but for now it's feeling good and producing results

Damn, interesting.

I want my chest bigger, but at the same time i prioritize the hardest exercise first. Also, I don't feel like spending more that 1 hour max at the gym. So I get like 8 working sets per muscle per week. Growth has been steady, and with progressive overload goin fine

Question Mike, how would you quantify the value of “mind muscle connection” or “feeling” it in the desired muscle. JP has answered several questions on is ask me anything insta series and he generally downplays the importance or “feeling” it. And generally sticks firm to the stance of progressive your lifts consistently. So perhaps you don’t have the “feeling” part nailed down in the hack squat but if you’re progressing the lift consistently whilst increasing your body weight this is vastly more Important than the “feeling” part. What’s your opinion?

I can attest to this specifically with chest. After becoming "enhanced" the strength went up and my first movement was always ~15° incline db press as the heavy movement, which I was killing but starting at the 115-120lb range my old ass shoulders weren't having it and just kept getting tweaked/pinched constantly. So I started doing cable flys as the first workout 2-3 sets of looking for around 15 being near failure, and then went to incline. Couldn't do 140s like I was at, more like 100-110 for 8-10, but it was the pec being pre-exhausted and fully failing with a lower weight and better form as optimally intended, without being at a higher weight that my beat up rotator cuffs just wasn't handling well.

And i didn’t understand when we are adjusting the volume (if it’s going higher) if we can also progressive overload with loads or if we should keep them the same because increasing the volume is itself a form of progressive overload.

How does Dr Mike determine "beginner, intermediate, or advanced?" Is that determined by your level of physical conditioning, or training experience? Example: trained for many years but quit for a few years and getting back into it, therefore physically low in the food chain.

MIKE! I am very intrested in hearing your opinion on Human Growth Hormone and how it increases during long term fasting (weeks) and what the purpose for that function is and how it affects your muscle growth?/retention?. Whats your opinion on the current data

QUESTION - heavy isolation work, first - is that appropriate advice for older lifters? ie. reducing the injury risk while still getting heavy muscle grown?

For chest day I normally do 5-10 min on bike then 3 sets of an ab excersise to get blood moving then I’ll do light body weight dips changing the angle of the dips just to feel my chest and tris then I’ll go straight into hard bar or dumbbell bench press and then I go into my higher rep lighter flys , push ups, dips and go slow and hard in those and by the time I’m done with those I’m fully pumped and done

Dr mike, love it. Have you considered losing 30 lbs and being the specimen you were meant to be!? Cheers

Is there a better order between pushing, then pulling next or viceversa? I’ve started doing pull day on monday and push day on tuesday, and I’ve had some issues specifically when doing flys for the chest, it feels like my biceps and back muscles are too tired to mantain an elbow angle and a lifted chest, they end up being the limiting factor

QUESTION - can you do a video comparing TRT to enhanced?

This is why I do bis and tris on the same day and chest and back on the same day. Doing the old back and curls left me feeling weak by the second set. It seems to move the blood around better.

I have found that pre exhaust technique is a great way to really get the intensity going

I find that sticking to one exercise per day emphasizes the focus I can concentrate on to give to each lift so that no lift suffers
