So yesterday I realized something about working out: when in the gym for long periods at a time, boredom sets in and workouts can be uninteresting when using a rigid format.

I don't like stepping away from a routine after such a short period, but after I finish off this week, I'm jumping back to what I was doing just before this.

Workouts should not only be challenging, but a little entertaining as well. I loved my old workout so much and it was working very well, but I got the wild idea that this one was more structured and would get better strength gains... nope.

It allowed me to see what repetitious monotony looks like and made me appreciate the variety my old routine offered though (a very good lesson actually).

The current routine offered stability without variety, but didn't allow for drop-sets or many of the "fun" exercises that I enjoyed.

I was thinking doing 3x8 @ 140# on a bench press was better than 1x3 @155#, 3x10 @135#, then 95# to failure (~20 reps)... it may deliver more linear progress, but at a cost.

I need the variety to keep it interesting I've found 💪🏼😊

Cool! It's good to learn not only what does, but what doesn't. :)

I think this is why so many people like Crossfit and other change-it-up programs - because it's not so monotonous. It's also why I hate the treadmill, even with the TV on. It's boring. I'd rather walk outside and/or do other things like moving cinderblocks or bags of dirt. I'd like an hour in the gym, but two or three would make me nuts unless it was a more social thing.
