It's been a while since my last post. The main reason is simply that work has been very, very consuming lately—but I am back now, with a solid, consistent routine at last (more details in the coming weeks).

Having trained for over 12 years, with many ups and many downs, I wanted to collect my thoughts and compile some tips that I think every new lifter (and more experienced ones, if they haven’t already) should consider implementing.

I've been training for many years now, and have found myself in the gym 5 days a week for up to two hours a session. Some might say that's a little crazy.
