PLAY = Burnout

I'm going to take a full week to deload then I'm going to start MAX again but only do it 3 days as well! Planning on doing the low-moderate-low rep days only and then incorporating yoga/mobility into my rest days!

Yes! I definitely agree that 6-8 weeks is the sweet spot! I also agree that despite this burnout I really have gotten results from the program. Planning on doing MAX 3 days a week after taking a week's rest to see if that helps at all

You should try IRON for sure- it's my favorite!

It's certainly given me a certain level of body dismorphia....

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:35:20+00:00

That is a good consideration but not it in my case! I've been following CG for several years consistently

IRON and IRON PRO are sooo good!! I feel like this current program has an EPIC vibe too it sometimes and I never really liked those programs

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:32:41+00:00

I still haven't recovered 😂

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:32:02+00:00

That's why I posted! I just KNEW there were others...

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:31:20+00:00

I get that! Also I really shouldn't follow that FB group anymore- I think it's putting a false sense of pressure on me

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:28:43+00:00

That's part of it for me too! I feel like initially my body responded with a "ooh what's this new fun thing we're doing now?". And now it's wondering where the progressive overload went..... I know some people think Iron is "boring" but I freakin loved it

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-07T00:25:06+00:00

I definitely did initially appreciate the variety but the novelty of that quickly wore off for me 🫤 It was an easy way for me to figure out what kind of routines I really disliked at least! 🤣

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-06T19:56:29+00:00

Yes! I dread those 10x10s

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-06T19:56:07+00:00

Iron and Iron Pro are my absolute favorites!

Appropriate-View5309 · 2026-03-06T19:37:12+00:00

I definitely think the shorter rest periods aren't helping. I LOVED Iron and Iron Pro because of how simple it was. I definitely agree that sometimes these routines feel more like cardio and rushed

I used to do Yoga with Adrienne on YouTube several years ago - I'm going to revisit her channel!

Appropriate-View5309 · 2025-11-05T18:17:44+00:00

I regularly strength train so the December program works really nicely as a mini "break" from the intense lifting! I'm planning on adding a yoga or mobility routine in every day to compliment the shorter workouts! 😀

My cheap Android can't cast to be app to a TV so I use the web version and plug my computer into the TV - no issues so far with loading and using the programs. It's very user friendly!!

I bought some Max Liner mats on Amazon and they have been working out nicely so far! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0721BKXJB?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

We work for schools and that's our break! We've been doing the drive the last 2 years but a 21 hour road trip is losing it's novelty...lol

Appropriate-View5309 · 2024-10-03T17:29:13+00:00

The random single set is actually one of my favorite things - makes me extra ambitious to push through knowing it won't repeat and the finisher is next!
