"The departure from heavy, kick ass lifting has sent many men into a testosterone devoid body and a weaker mind. The mind and body are meant to be challenged, and, a stronger mind and body make YOU a much more effective, successful person both in AND out of the weight room." There was a couple years where I was focusing on really short workouts, which forced me to lower the weight significantly. Although it helped me stay lean and look good, I lost strength and didn't gain any size. I've been back to incorporating a lot of strength training during the past 7 months, and man does it make a world of a difference. Not just physically, but mentally as you mentioned. It's funny, I was just telling my wife yesterday that after doing heavy squats or deadlifts I feel more like a man! I change my training style every 4 weeks. Sometimes I push it to 6 weeks. Personally I like to have a couple different training styles to each program. I find it important for each program to have a strength component as well as some hypertrophy training using supersets, dropsets, 8 sets of 8, and things like that. Thanks for the huge dose of inspiration bro. I love how you finished this post off bro!

I was wondering do you use some of principles from Controlled Fatigue Training. I recently purchased Ori Hofmekler's e-books on controlled fatigue training and Super Muscle Training and was wondering do you train to create Hybrid Muscles? Thank you for your input. Hey Zach,
