I've just recently gone back to the gym after a 4 year gap (forgot how good it feels ) but before this i went to the gym 3 times a week and did this for around five years so i have a good understanding of how to train and eat etc just a little rusty and older
Sometimes i can go to the gym and my muscles will feel full and pumped/good as if all the blood has gone into the muscle that i'm working on (but only on the odd occasion) and the rest of the time they will feel pumped but no where near as full and as tight..
I can only assume it's got something to do with what i'm eating on those odd days but i can't put my finger on what it is?
I train with the same intensity at every sesh which usually comprises of 1x warm up set & 4 sets maxing out around 7 to 10 reps usually with a minutes gap between each set where i will stretch or spot.
I try to eat 5 small meals which contain 30 grams of protein and add carbs depending on the time of day...
The only supplements i'm taking are amino acids and whey isolate at the mo..
Here's what i usually train together:
Back and Biceps
Chest and Triceps
Shoulder and Traps
Legs when i can be bothered (i Know i just don't like doin legs, never have)
So what is it that i'm eating/drinking that is giving me a better pump on that odd occasion?
Cheers Jonny
