    A lot of guys will tell you it's a bit much - too many sets. I think it may not be the case with you. That said, whether it's counter-productive or not, I train to failure, always. My gains have never slowed down of fallen off. I'm sure there's a point, damn near one's natural potential, where over training can become a serious means of self-sabotage but for guys our age still working well towards that potential, I think your workout looks good. Take measurements and keep logs, stick w/ it for a month - see where it takes you. Also, don't let people tell you cardio will hinder your gains - you're cutting and your diet is on point, the more the merrier. However, I would simply alternate, one day 30 mins HIT - till you're ready to pass out - and the next 60 mins moderate LIT, 70% HR. I've seen great results with that and achieved the goals you're going for in weeks.

    Ok cool. I'll try that way of cardio out. Thx man. Yea i'll push it to failure on my last station. I need to be dead tired after a workout so I dont have insomnia from the N.O.xplode.
