[quote=Anonymous]If you want to get strong, you must lift heavy! The Crossfit "Fran" workout women's prescription is 65 lbs., lifted overhead for 21 repetitions, then 15, and then 9. That is an aerobic workout, and strength workouts would be much heavier. Read "Starting Strength" by Mark Rippetoe. He advocates lifting three times per week. Barbell squat - 3 sets of 5 reps, Overhead press or bench press, 3x5, Deadlift (1x5) or power cleans (5x3). Try to increase the weights every workout. Forget about dumbbell paper-weights. A barbell and Starting Strength will make you strong![/quote]
