@bobo_mcpherson I honestly would just encourage you to pick a program. Any program. Work hard, reap the benefits of your efforts. Over time (years) you'll learn to adjust things for you. My first program that I followed when I was 18 (37 now) was Chad Waterbury's - Total Body Training. I think...

@bobo_mcpherson There are programs and there are principles. You're going to want to take the principles in order to create a program. HIT teaches you about working very hard and putting forth effort. A very valuable tool, as in my opinion, you won't be able to accurately assess Reps in Reserve...

@bogdanpnw Push Pull rotating on a 3 day per week cycle. It's all I can devote to the pursuit right now.

@savis It's variable depending on the exercise, but most of my compounds, the goal is 8-9rpe each set. Isolations, the first set is usually an 8 with the final sets goal being failure.

@savis I follow a double progression with a certain RPE goal set to set. Say I'm aiming for 8-12 reps across three sets with an RPE of 8. The first sets weight is 50lbs, but I hit 14 reps before that 8rpe is achieved. I'll increase the weight for the next set so that I hit the goal within the...
