Subject: What constitutes heavy lifting?

When people say you should “lift heavy”, they are primarily referring to full body compound exercises — squats and deadlifts primarily. Those exercises are fundamentally different than something like bicep curls, and their nos t on your body is totally different.
Hmm…really? I think they are actually referring to the amount of weight
Yes, weight that is heavy to you. You can't make a blanket statement that heave means you can bench 120 lbs as this could be one person's body weight or it could be half another person's weight. This this is why there are body weight categories in lifting competitions.
