Creating the mini curriculum

In the process of creating a mini curriculum which will adapt to the challenges of advancing learning in various disciplines. Effectively it will provide both a time and structure to certain subjects of study.
This month in the study of language, i've decided to focus on one language, in this case Spanish. That will be the only language i actively study each month. I'll assign a month to each of the core languages i'm learning. The focus of that is to really advance my learning. The other core languages i'm learning currently (French, German and Thai) will also receive one full month of sole focus each year. On the other months I will interleave my learning in some predetermined fashion.
Duolingo is my main form of language study for languages (other than Thai which still needs a course to be completed).
With music, i'll try to accomplish the same thing. Since my main instruments now are piano and guitar, I'll focus on those, but I'll likely add a drum course as well. I can't see totally giving up guitar in a month, but when i have a piano focused month it will certainly be on the backburner. The one thing for each instrument will vary. A monthly focus will be key. With Guitar, i currently have a subscription to Truefire, but also temporarily have a subscription to Fender Play. Both of these will get some type of monthly focus (In particular Fender Play currently since it will soon expire).

RP hypertrophy

https://www.reddit.com/r/weightroom/comments/6674a4/dr_mike_israetels_training_tips_for_hypertrophy/
https://renaissanceperiodization.com/training-volume-landmarks-muscle-growth/

Dr. Mike Israetel's Training Tips for Hypertrophy

Dr. Mike Israetel has been posting a pretty awesome series to his blog about volume recommendations for each muscle along with tips and tricks on how to train them effectively. Below I have made a quick table with all his recommendations and a link to each post for more information. If you have not checked them out already I highly recommend doing so as there is a lot of good information in there that I couldn't compact into the chart.

His volume recommendations are based on the following principles:

MV = Maintenance Volume
- How much volume you need to maintain your gains.
MEV = Minimum Effective Volume
Whats the least amount of volume needed to make gains.
MAV = Maximum Adaptive Volume
This is the range of volumes in which you make your best gains. It’s a much more of a range than the other volume landmarks because it changes greatly within each training mesocycle (week to week).
MRV = Maximum Recoverable Volume
When the total amount of volume starts to become greater than your recovery and you start impeding your progress.

He wrote a lot more about these concepts in his blog post titled "Training Volume Landmarks for Muscle Growth" check this out for a more in depth explanation into these concepts.

Current List:

Body Part	MV	MEV	MAV	MRV	Frequency	Loading
Abs	0	0	16-20	25+	3-5x	8-20 reps
Back	8	10	14-22	25+	2-4x	6-20 reps
Biceps	5	8	14-20	26+	2-6x	8-15 reps
Triceps	4	6	10-14	18+	2-4x	6-15 reps (pressing) 10-20 (extension)
Calves	6	8	12-16	20+	2-4x	60-70% 1RM
Chest	8	10	12-20	22+	1.5 - 3x	8-12 reps
Front Delts	0	0	6-8	12+	1-2x	6-10 reps
Glutes	0	0	4-12	16+	2-3x	8-12 reps
Hamstring	4	6	10-16	20+	2-3x	70-85% 1RM
Quad	6	8	12-18	20+	1.5-3x	8-15 reps
Rear/Side Delt	0	8	16-22	26+	2-6x	10-12 reps
Traps	0	0	12-20	26+	2-6x	10-20 reps

The numbers for MV, MEV, MAV, and MRV are number of sets per week.
Frequency is the number of times the muscle is trained a week.
Loading is the recommended scheme to exercise the specific muscle by. For this one especially check out his original blog.
It should also be noted that muscles with MV 0 is only applied if you are getting other compound work in. Such as deadlifts for traps.

How to apply these concepts:

In the blog post "Training Volume Landmarks for Muscle Growth" he talks about how to apply this to your training in greater detail. By using these recommendation as guide lines you can begin to narrow down your own MV, MEV, MAV and MRV's. Begin training at your MEV and progress your volume through your MAV until you reach your own MRV should result in the most benefits. Then deloading at your MV until you are ready to start your progression again.

1996 em

My parents purchased me my first cell phone in 1997 when I got a job that required a long commute.

I was thinking this morning how different it was in 1996 when people would only have the option to call you on a home phone, send a letter, or an email since i did have that at the time.

On occasion now i let some negative people in my life and given the multiple easy modes of communication today with text, instant messengers, social media apps, I decided that the best way to cut out people like that from your life is to do something i will call 1996-ing them.. Basically block their ability to text you, or message you incessantly.

Sadly sometimes you have to do that.
