📢 Runners, are you lifting heavy enough? Try this simple test 🏋🏽♀️
One mistake we frequently observe runners make in the gym is using insufficient weight during exercises 🏋️♂️❌
💪 To maximize your strength gains, it's essential to lift a weight that leaves you with only 2 additional repetitions before reaching failure. This is known as "reps in reserve" (RIR). For example, if you're performing an exercise for 8 repetitions, select a weight you could lift for a maximum of 10 repetitions.
🔎 So, here's a test for you: select one of your current exercises & perform as many reps as you can using your chosen weight. If you're able to do more than 2 extra reps compared to your usual performance, it's time to increase the weight!📈
