[quote=Anonymous]OP, how much can you squat, deadlift, and bench? Can you perform full pull-ups, chin-ups, and push-ups? How many in a row? If the answers to these questions are not ones you have, I submit to you that the kind of weight training you are doing is really likely to be inadequate for meaningful muscle gain. It’s true that a lot of the first year of any real weight program is neurological. So if you say something like “I squat 85 lbs, deadlift 129 and bench 50”—just keep adding incrementally. But if you are doing a kind of class where you are flinging around smaller weights or “body bars” and doing push-ups from your knees only—you’re in the wrong place for what you’re trying to get done.[/quote]
