[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go heavier. Progress slowly. When something is super easy for you after 12 reps, increase weight. I’m 40 and 2 yrs into weight lifting from home (I do have a virtual trainer, which helps a ton) started with 5’s, 10’s and 20ms. Have slowly added 15’s, 25’s 30’s and now a squat rack, bar, plates. I lift 3 times a week, walk 45 min 6 days a week and do yoga once or twice if I need it. I completely shocked my husband with a 135lb dead lift, he had no idea how strong I’ve become. I’m convinced women need protein (I try .8-1g/per lb body weight) and heavier weights. I’m 40, 2 kids, 5’5 and 120. It’s simple (sometimes boring) but works! [/quote] you are AWESOME! wish I had room for a squat rack at home :)[/quote]
