11:26 You had me right up until the blood flow restriction exercise… Oh well, looks like there’s another way to define the 80/20 rule. Thanks for the other tips though. You have an excellent presentation manner. Cheers.
Thank u Dr A. I am a fit father for life and do still work out mostly based around the O S M program. I read everything u put on here and find all information very helpful. Thanks again. Brian Simpson
Hi team, as a 25 year old guy I really like Dr A's content, but just wandering would his muscles building programme be right for me? Or would I be better of at my age sticking to something more volume based while young.
The Old School Muscle principles will still work for you at 25 @anishpatel344. There are considerations in the program for guys in their later years, but the fundamental principles of exercise and nutrition are still very relevant for a guy of your age. You can simply disregard any of the specific information for guys over 40.

I have a question about working out and nutrition. I was wondering if it is better to work out in the mornings before breakfast or in the evenings before supper? The reason I ask is that I was watching one of your videos and you were said something about eating carbs in the morning. If you workout first thing in the morning, eating carbs for breakfast, after working out shoud be ok? I have watched many of your videos and have done some of your workouts. I really enjoy them. I am in my 60's and I am trying to keep in shape and try and build a little muscle and try and lose some fat. I look forward to your response. Keep up the great work
Hey Anthony, thanks for writing in and we appreciate the kind words! The right answer is whatever works best for you and your schedule to execute the workouts consistently. However, check out this video for more info: pulse.ly/cyodfa0xjh Best of luck and thanks for watching! -The FFP Team
Hey Juan, thanks for writing in and great question! If you have gotten to a point where daily lifting is the "norm" for your body, you can certainly do it most days of the week. However, depending on your goals, you will eventually want to overtax your muscles each session to help promote a recovery response and when working that hard, you will need days off.

I was also wondering about the form of the dumbbell deadlift. I’m no expert, but it just looks a bit dangerous for the lower back, the way it’s demonstrated here. I’ve avoided deadlifts, due to lower back problems. And I just know, if I did what was being shown here, my back would probably spasm!
I bought some BFR bands and tried them a couple times. I'm not actually sure they do all that much. They likely do make a difference, but how much? I think you would probably get most of the same results without them. For example, if you are doing 2 arm exercises and follow the standard 30-15-15-15 rule, you have done 150 reps. Your arms would probably be pretty pumped after all that, even at lighter weight.

Hey Vince, thanks for writing in and great question! And you can absolutely try using BFR for the remainder. We do recommend getting some lifting experience under your belt first but if you are a little more seasoned, feel free to perform BFR instead. Best of luck! -The FFP Team
Hey JU, thanks for writing in and great question! If you have access to a Hex bar, you sure can use it as it doesn't require as much flexibility and mobility overall. But once you feel you have a good grasp on the movement, feel free to introduce other deadlift forms to give your body something new. -The FFP Team

@@Fitfatherproject I agree. I am very happy with it. Durable, folds up out of the way, and has every angle for training. I even put the leg holder on, hook my ankles under it, and do nordic curls for hamstrings
@markgill1754 - These exercises can definitely be done in your 70's, as long as you use weights that you can control, and can keep strict form. Strength training has so many benefits, particularly as you get past 40.

Awesome brother! You’re very welcome 🙏🏼
I use dumbbell chest press on the floor. I've had multiple shoulder impingements from being a knucklehead in my 20s and 30s. Its helped tremendously.
Try the dumbbell floor flyes too. They are also easy on the shoulder joints.
@@leibmoshe yes part of my routine.
That affects so many guys @music-jj2pl. I'm glad you've found exercises that you can use, that do not hurt your shoulders.👊🏼
Yes @leibmoshe5887, flyes are also a good option. Thank you for your input. 👍
I have dumbbells . But I was looking for something new to help me! Thank you doc!!! I needed this
That's great @geno5169 - Very happy to have come along at the right time for you! Best of luck! 💪
Thank you, Sir. I am 59 and trying to build muscle. I will be trying out your regime.
Awesome my friend! Thank you very much 😊

With deadlifts, shouldn’t your back be on more of a 45 degree angle or is that only with straight-bar deadlifts? 🙏🏼

Thank you for your reply. For the floor presses, do you recommend putting BFR bands on the arms or around the chest below the armpits?
Should we use a hex bar of we have one for dead lifts
