@annee Thanks! Great info. I can definitely probably do 12-14 reps in one set right now at 130. I did already bench 180 for 1 rep 2 months ago but it was super difficult. So I'm excited to see what I can do now with all these amazing beginner gains.

@annee I’m starting out and can do 130, 3 sets of 8. I haven’t really pushed myself. when you say 20 reps is that a set of 20, or do you add them all together?

@mac64 https://ibb.co/7QRBY26 https://ibb.co/0Ygh4tH It confused me too. I have cycled while fat for 15 years. So my legs are jacked. The rate at which I’m visually putting on muscle is amazing me. My strength is rubbish still.

@mac64 263 lbs, 5'9.5 33.2% bodyfat. nMffi 25.84 Fmmi 25.63. Been lifting for 3 months. Does this mean I have good genetics or something else related to me being fat?
