I am glad that it is working out for you and like you said you can always add more work.

That Youtube video was just released this Wednesday.

Aha, then I havent seen it before. But the message is familiar.

I wrote to one of the SS gym owners that has many "mature" trainees. He said he uses 5 ascending sets with good results.

Yes, I tried ascending sets when I had bad knees a couple of years ago, did box squats, worked really fine.

What do you think of your new routine?

[57bergstrm]

Well Fred, its to early to say, it sure slower in progression and not so demanding recovering.
But will it deliver thats the question, next week Im in for fives on three of the lifts, will see then, protein intake is still high so I have hope.
How are you doing, any Pr,s in sight?
