    Are you sleeping well and taking it easy on rest days?

    Those numbers seem kinda low to be getting off the novice program. Especially squat. But everyone is different.

    I just experienced this first hand. Had to do my lifts in an unfavorable order due to a busy gym. Did abs early instead of at the end and it made the important lifts more difficult

    Hmm, hadn’t considered that. Lol

    I hadn’t failed twice in a row. I’ll do a reset



    RDL would be a lower body workout, no? So it should be 10 lbs.

    Also pretty sure RDL should be heavier...

    It’s my heaviest lift and it’s been pretty consistently hard to do 3x8.

    My main question isn’t about the weight itself, but is about the total pounds lifted in your sets.

    75 - 3x20 is more pounds lifted than 95 - 3x12.
    Should I be worried about that, or just worry...

    It is. But I ramp it up kind of slowly.
    For example...

    75x12
    75x15
    75x20
    90x12

    Thanks for the alternative suggestions too

    Calf Raise Progression

    Currently use a calf raise machine, and the weights don’t go up in small increments. Jumps from 75-90 lbs for example.

    So I’m upping reps before I up the weight between workouts.

    But should I...

    If you fail a rep I’d recommend stopping that exercise for the day. So you fail on your 3rd bench rep; no more benching that day.

    Bodyweight exercises like chinups/pullups I’d say its a little...

    I think you should go .7 - 1g per 1 lb of LEAN body mass. Don’t need to fuel fat with protein

    What nutrients?
