If you talk to anyone who has even thought about lifting, you will hear about changing up your program every now and then. Muscle confusion is a term that just makes me laugh for some reason; sorry, it just does.
My program has been the same for decades, yes, decades. It took some time to figure out what worked for me, what didn't work for me and what just invited injury. After refining my program to the point of optimum gains, I have just stuck with one program. Sure I'll change reps but the movements and the order they are done in stay the same. The only time this would differ is prior a PL meet.
My point is, why change something if what you're doing is working? Change for the sake of change may not always be a good change. Anyone else feel this way about a program they developed over the years?
