Rep Power: Getting bigger is an unknown quantity at this point
Default I am in need of solid advice

As any who have read my bits at half a century and a bit I have made a return to BB and have made stunning progress it's amazed me for certain; where I am in need of help is the gym is on site where I work and I am hitting each BP once a week and training to failure 5 days Mon to Fri with 2 BP's per session, I can't stop, I've got bloody addicted again, have put on 26lbs and shrunk the waist but am getting sore on arms, upper side of elbow (palm up just at the top of 4arm to start of biceps, I rest Sat Sun and don't want to compromise growth but is there really any scientific value in taking a break or reducing the days? I am in and out in 50 minutes, lift hard and heavy and am growing but I know I just cant keep this intensity up due to discomfort in the area I have said with some mild discomfort on shoulders in addition.

I do intend to pose again in 2010 [Masters Natural] (if I can make it, I'll be 55 then) I eat plenty, do CV take far to many supplements but am clean this time, I would really really appreciate any general advice and scientific facts that prove beyond doubt that I am over training; I am truly addicted.

Any suggestions guys? Please, I so desperately want to get it right this time.

Weight 15 stone
Height 5'9"
Arms 16.5 R 17" L flexed (odd the left is bigger, I'm right handed.)
Chest 48
Waist 33"
Legs Getting there

when youre not progressing theres a fair chance youre not overtraining...
if your sleep appetite and enthusiasm are genuinely good you doing the right thing!

personally at 40 i train 2 x a week and if youre natty would recommend you do the same.
but hey - each to his own.

Hi Mate

Im happy to hear ur loving ur training, the way it should be, I personally train 7 days per week working on one bodypart then 30mins of cardio after, I feel like u do about my training and can handle this type of volume because my day job is not physically taxing i can remain lean and train over 7days. If i was u i would use a few joint supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin also omega fats etc to at least miimise incident of injury. I would also refrain from 1rep maxes. Train to good form with lighter weight and injury will be avoided,

all the best and good luck

R
