After reading this post i had to really think about the weight that I lift, and had to sit and count it up in my head. This is probably due to the fact that I don't really pay attention to the numbers. I know what disks I pile on to the bars and am always gradually trying to add a bit more.
Ever since I started training I have been a stickler for proper form and aim to make the muscle that I am working burn and tighten as much as possible until failure. There is nothing worse than watching guys lugging huge weights about with no form or control, this can only be an injury waiting to happen.
YOU CONTROL THE WEIGHT, DON'T LET THE WEIGHT CONTROL YOU!!!! |
