[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t remember where I saw this. Help me figure out what I read or where I read it. Something like “do 20 reps at X lower weight. Once you can do it without quitting, move up to the next weight” This may not even be the right advice, which is why I want to look it up again. Something about how you make lifting gains. Starting small. An approach to knowing when to level up.[/quote] I wrote something along those lines in this thread a couple weeks ago. People had a lot of great advice, and the whole thread is an informative read. But the gist is that you start with whatever weight you can do 3 sets of 8 reps easily and comfortably, and move up 5 lbs when you're able to do 10 reps just as easily. Don't forget to eat enough according to a BMR calculator, or your muscles will never grow! https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/0/1161732.page#26145958 [/quote]
