[quote=Anonymous]You are lifting heavy FOR YOU if the last 2 reps are challenging to the point you have to make an ugly face to complete them, while not compromising form. This can be for any rep range. So if you are aiming for 10-12 reps, do 12 reps and could still do a few more than you are not lifting heavy enough. If you only get to 10 reps then great you are lifting heavy. If you only hit 6 reps then weight is too heavy for the rep range you are aiming to hit. Most programs do not have the same rep range for all exercises. Some may have a range of 4-6, 8-10 or 10-12. But the last few reps should always be hard. [/quote]
