Been idling too long at the same weight but not sure you're ready to up a few pounds? Here's a real quick and easy way to know if your muscles are ready to move up!
its called the 2-2-2 rule!
when you are thinking about pushing up to the next level, add TWO extra reps on your last TWO sets of the exercise. if you can do that TWO days in a row without a problem.. then you are ready to increase the weights!
be prepared to have the body scream at you for the new resistance factor as it will most likely be lazy and trick you into thinking its too heavy and you aren't ready... also, make sure you understand the difference between BURN..and PAIN.
Burn is good.
Pain is BAD.
til next time team, if you're resistant to change in weights, don't expect a change in your physical performance!
health respect & happiness,
beki
