[quote=Anonymous]I'm a 53-year-old male who has been active with sports, weightlifting and running my entire adult life. For the last 30 years I've lifted weights for fitness (not for bulk) every 2nd day -- so an average of 3.5 times a week. Usually on the same day as weightlifting, I run a few miles. Lately, my muscles have been taking longer to recover after workouts. The off-day between my workout days doesn't seem to be sufficient for my muscles to fully recover. Nevertheless, I've continued with my every-2nd-day workout approach, but I'm wondering if this is the best approach. I'm curious to get feedback from other people in their 50s who have worked out their entire adult lives. Have you altered your workout schedule as you have aged? What is your current approach with respect to resting between workouts, and how does this compare to what you used to do when you were younger? [/quote]
