Hi THS,
Glad to see the workout had an effect. Genetics wise my opinion is you have the ability to be a seriously big guy, I’ve not met many people with your bone mass or frame and certainly not at your height, only trained with one guy who had and he wanted to weigh a stone in weight for every year of his age – he managed it to from 18 to 27 – at 23 stone the guy had abs, he was 6’4”, strong as an Ox!

My opinion is follow this regime for a max of five weeks then change it. I’d probably have an active rest week and then do a five week macro cycle using heavy basic compound exercises the another active rest week. Nothing worse than going stale bad for motivation and cell adaptation. I never stay with any routine longer than 5 weeks, although I normally incorporate pre exhaust somewhere – but for me that’s down to sore old joints and injury too.

Should just about put you on track for a leg session post my pre-contest prep
Out of interest I first got interested in pre exhaust reading about one of the American Natural pro’s whose sponsored by house of pain, I thought the idea of maximising stimulation without impeding auto immune recovery sounded a good principal, natural or not. Also I’ve never been a big fan of spending ages in the gym . Get in, get done, get out, get fed!

Cheers
