Only light weights doe ;(

But i did google and dere are some cool benefits of light lifting, so i don't feel so bad now. Some study says its all about tiring your muscles, whether it be with heavy lifting or numerous repetitions of light lifting, so maybe dis won't be so

Pick the weight that lets you do about 10 SLOW reps until you reach exhaustion. Ideally do 3 sets of that, with about 3 minutes rest btwn each set.

Then move on to the next muscle / exercise and repeat.

Theres no benefit to light lifting. The heavier the better.

Fine advice, and I get what you mean by saying go slow, but tempo actually doesn't matter. What matters is controlling the negative. As in you aren't just letting the weight 'drop' back to you, you are controlling it with your muscles the wholetime instead. The speed at which you do that doesn't actually matter much.

I only say slow because it prevents jerking and dropping, but agreed

I feel so fucking good dis morning, I've missed dis feeling so much T____T

Thanks for da tips, I'll try dat next time. Usually i go 1 set of exercise(chest), den immediately another set for another part of my body(like back), den another(shoulders), etc and den take a 2-4 minute break and den do it all over again for at least 4 cycles

Is dat an ok way too?
