[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 77640595, member: 330042"] Just curious how you consider your routine "low volume"? What you are describing sounds like relatively high volume, albeit you're using unconventional/less common training tools, like maces or clubs. I'm not saying it's [I]too[/I] high volume, though. It's all about what an individual can recover from: the more experienced and conditioned you are, the more volume you can handle. FWIW, this was today's workout, after walking a half mile to the local fitness club: -5 minutes each Sci-Fit recumbent cycle, stepper, and lateral stepper, isometric strength setting -2 sets x 10 reps x 40 lbs glute press/kickbacks (rehab/prehab to get in better shape for jogging and running intervals) -3x8x40 rows -1x8x40 chest presses -1x10x4 Arnold presses -5 minute cooldown on upright bike. Then I walked home. The workload ratio for that workout is good in terms of cardiovascular fitness, no rest days are incurred, though I won't be doing a full body strength workout like that again until Wednesday (I'll probably do the Blade and clubs tomorrow, since the upper body workout was relatively light today).
