Sometimes I feel like doing isolations is gay
I go back and forth tbh. Between “Isolations are gay. Just lift heavy compounds.” And “take it easy, we’re not making a western here. Isolations are easier on the joints”

In the end, my conclusion is that Mike Mentzer was right about everything so just do everything he says and no need to overthink further if your goal is bodybuilding.
Balding is death. If you have no hair, you have no life.

I usually do 1 or 2 compounds per workout and then just spam random iso stuff to balance things out.

Doing the most intense exercises possible in the shortest amount of time will produce the greatest results and avoid wasting away your joints
Do really heavy lifts for a few reps or difficult HIIT type of workouts at maximum intensity. You really only need to work out for a few minutes per day
Do things that push you to the limit. Advanced calisthenics, sprinting up hills, fingertip slow motion pull-ups until your chest is over the bar, jumping pistol squats, etc
If you want to regain some of your youthful energy, take NMN to restore your NAD levels, and take apigenin to inhibit the CD38 enzyme which robs you of your precious NAD
