Hey Henrick,

This sounds totally fine. In general, weightlifting (and even general working out) isn’t too problematic. You’re probably tapping into your anaerobic system since these rep ranges qualify more as “bursts” or “sprints” than endurance. But it’s likely you’re not staying pegged in the anaerobic system for long, given your rest periods.

Best,
Rob

Just wanted a bit more clarity on my own routine. I go to the gym 5 days a week, doing weight training. I always have at least 48 hours rest in between the muscle groups I train. The sessions last no more than 45 minutes with 15 minutes attributed to rest. My reps sit in between the 8-12 mark for 3 sets.

Does this fall into the excessive? I’m not sure with this rep/set count the workout is anaerobic or aerobic? I will always increase my weight kg very slightly over time…

Thanks,
H

Hey Wesley — in most cases, yes. I certainly shed when I stopped taking Rogaine after 7 years. It’s part of the downside of most of these drugs — once you stop taking them, you lose what you gained. It’s the problem with most of Western medicine. You manage the symptoms of a condition, rather than treating the condition itself.

Helps add confirmation to suspicions I’ve had for a long time. Helping me deal with people who look down their noses and label me as “just weak” or “full of excuses” when i dare suggest a negative effect of overtraining and not resting enough..
