[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]For me it's being able to do 10-12 reps with the last 2 reps being a struggle. If it's too easy, I need to increase weight. Too hard, and need to deload. You should be able to do 3-4 sets of 10-12 reps.[/quote] If you can do 10-12 reps for 3-4 sets you are not lifting heavy, sorry. A weight you can do for 1-3 reps is heavy.[/quote] No. Lifting heavy in the context of fitness and fat loss is just to failure. 8-10 reps 3 sets When the weight gets easy, increase it. You want those last reps to be as hard as possible without sacrificing form. Never sacrifice form. [/quote] DP - no, it’s lifting to muscle failure. That’s different than lifting heavy.[/quote] Eh…that’s what I said. [/quote]
