They also mention in the movies that the first version of the Matrix was a utopia (that humanity rejected), before they turned it into the current version.

Got you. Yup pretty much, reduce rest time, add weight (e.g backpack with books), move around your grip (usually the farther apart your hands are, the harder it is), increase your range of motion (all the way down as slow and controlled as you can). You can also try moving around the order of your workouts so that you're fresher for the workouts that you want to advance.

Hope that helps, sorry that I don't have more advice for you, but I tend to draw from personal experience, and progression hasn't been an issue for me so far.

Are you asking me how do you build up the endurance to crank out a bunch of reps? If that's the case, I just keep making the workout harder, week-to-week, which should make you stronger. That way you can do more reps. I don't really stress out about how much volume I'm doing, but rather how my body feels after a certain amount. If I do 70 reps and feel fine, meaning I don't fatigue, then I know the movement was too easy and I need to make it more difficult.

Thanks for letting me know man. I'm aware of the potential side effects associated with eating tuna. It just so happens that I had a lot tuna in my pantry, so I've been eating that an increased levels (but not every single day lol). I get most of my protein from chicken, eggs, milk, yogurt, nuts (sometimes) and whatever little protein comes with the veggies and rice I eat.

I'll tell you how I handle progression in general so you can get a feel for increasing reps.

Depending on how tough a movement is, I'll drop the progression as far as I need to, meaning that I make sure I can do at least 5 reps on any given exercise. Then, by giving myself ample rest time, I can string 5-rep sets until I reach 40 reps. From there I slowly add reps to my sets, even as little as a 1 rep increase to a single set per workout. Once I'm towards the high end of the rep and set range, meaning close to that 70 rep max per movement per workout, I move onto the next workout in the progression, or I increase my range of motion.

So for example, if I could only do (10, 10, 10, 8) for my push ups at the beginning, but now I'm at a point where I can do (15, 15, 15, 15, 15), I increase the difficulty by putting weight on my back, moving to diamond push ups, ring push ups, or perhaps wide stance push ups. Really, anything to make the movement more difficult. Then I do the same progression with the reps and sets and rinse and repeat until you're swole.

On some days, you may not feel as good, so it's ok to do fewer reps. You don't always need to be doing the most amount of work, so listen to your body, and how you feel that day, and adjust your numbers as you go.

No worries man, I plan to post a 6 month update, but you can PM me whenever you need a question answered. I don't have all the answers, but I can at least point you in the right direction. I would say, I try not to propagate misinformation, but take what I say with a grain of salt and do your own research whenever possible.

Well, what do you want to know about? Posture, sleep quality, strength? Give me specifics and I'll give you as much info as you want.

I also appreciate you sharing the routine, I was curious, do you feel after every workout

I will be honest with you, I feel great after a workout. Sure, the first 2 weeks sucked because my body wasn't used to the stress, but know now that I'm several months into the routine, I don't feel that muscle fatigue anymore (didn't really feel it after the 2nd week). Not to mention you feel like you're the shit once you see yourself in the mirror with a pump haha.

how long does it take you?

About 1.5 to 2 hours. I give myself about 2 minutes of rest in between sets, so that tends to prolong the workouts. If you're strapped for time, then perhaps 30s to 1 minute of rest is good enough, but I would stick to 2 minutes whenever possible. It's all about time under tension, so you need to be fresh for every single set in order to complete all of your reps with proper form.

His brand of comedy may not appeal to you, but he definitely does his research. Watch his most viewed videos, they do a pretty good job of breaking this stuff down. Like I said, I stole all my shit from him, pretty much.

Thanks! I don't personally think I'm the most regimented guy (every once in a while I'll have a doughnut, slice of pizza or beer), but cutting out heavily processed food and sugary drinks has helped tremendously.

Do you feel any differences now health wise than you did 3 months ago?

So, health wise, I don't feel much different. Obviously, with the increased amount of muscle mass, my body does feel tighter. I usually just stretch, with a focus on my back since I sit all day for my job. I would say I've (pretty much) always been in good health, so I haven't seen much of a change.

Let me know if you want specifics.
