I'm not Burton but I have been lifting weights for about 20 years now. Because of my age (I'll be 40 this year) I no longer can recover as quickly as I use too. I lift weights 3 times a week focusing on a different muscle group for each of those days. On Wednesday, I'll work chest and triceps. On Friday, I'll work back and biceps. On Sunday, I'll work shoulders and legs. I personally like to go as heavy as I can keeping my rep range between 4 - 8 reps with the occasional single and double. I can still deadlift 405 lbs. so I think this routine works for me.
