Some people experience way more muscle damage than others, and some people have a recovery gene.
Really?
They just recover quickly?
Yeah, it's an old paper I read.
I don't have that gene.
I don't have it either.
And I'm very envious of people who do because...
The listeners, you'll probably have people split in half, people going, I can do these crazy marathon workouts and the next day I'm not even sore.
And other people like you and I go, I get so sore.
I wish I could.
But here's the thing.
You could train it three times a week.
You have to adjust the variables.
If you're always training when you're fatigued and beat up, you're never going to get stronger.
So you might have to adjust the variables.
You and I might not be able to do as many sets as we could when we were 23.
You know what I mean?
Now that we're approaching 50, we have to do a little bit less volume.
Maybe we can't train three times a week, but we could train twice a week.
But everyone's unique.
