Description
How much weight should you be lifting?! That is the ultimate question, am I right? Seriously, this is one of the most frequently asked questions I get and that’s why I’ve decided to dedicate an entire podcast episode to the topic. Not only am I going to explain how much weight you should begin with if you are new to working out, but explain how to know when you need to move up in weight, how you should constantly be monitoring if you need to move up in weight, why it’s important to continue lifting heavier weights, and how to know if you are lifting TOO heavy of weights. Things I discuss: Rule #1: Start light and work your way up Rule #2: You should never compromise form. Rule #3: The goal is to be able to perform 70-90% of the movements with ease Rule #4: If you can’t perform 8 reps, you’re trying to lift too heavy. If you can easily perform 12 reps, you’re lifting too light Rule #5: Use progressive overload Rule #6: You need to get uncomfortable Link mentioned in this episode: Episode 13: How Much Weight Should I be Lifting?
