If you are in the later stages of your life, you don't need 2-3 hour workouts, 5-6 days a week. All you need is a program that allows you to:
- train hard
- fully recover between workouts
- and build muscle progressively and consistently
That's what a 3-day per week workout program will do for you. And you'll need no more than an hour per workout to reach your goals.
This may sound too simple to be effective, but believe me, it can deliver results. As someone has said, muscle growth doesn't come from endless sets; it comes from effective sets. Those high-quality, close-to-failure sets generate enough volume to trigger significant muscle growth.
So if you want to save time and enjoy life without living at the gym, create a system that lets your body rest and your muscles grow. You'll train your entire body 3 times a week. That's it. Each set will be taken close to failure. With just 3 days a week you can train your entire body efficiently without being sore, exhausted, or feeling like your gym time is competing with everything else in your life.
Try it in 2026 for yourself and see if you don't get the results you're after.
