From my first day lifting through at 13 years old all the way through my mid 30's I trained heavy as possible (6-12) reps while using a wide variety of techniques and an arsenal of exercises, and this allowed me to build crazy thickness, strength and impressive size. I'm now in my early 40's and am retaining the thickness and still adding a little mass when I eat for growth but have transitioned to a higher rep range. I'm a mesomorph with no injuries and great genetics but this is what i believe to be the best approach for those looking to learn from their (ahem) "elders"
So the lesson is lift heavy as shit and get huge and then focus on making slow improvements once your older () and already built up the base ?
