there is a difference between going heavy and too heavy. if you go heavy ya you will grow ur muscles or get it more tone. if you go too heavy you wont grow ur muscle you will probably have some muscle injury or some muscle tear or something like that.

If you go too heavy …
If you go too heavy you may hurt yourself or just tire, you need to maintain the workout long enough to break down muscle structure, then it grows back stronger

Free weights are …
Free weights are more difficult in my opinion…. so machines kinda help keep the balance… 2 months ago when i started i dont think i`d have done much without the machines, so i stick with the idea that machines are for beginners, only when i got more confident i started doing more of the free weight stuff…

No, that’s what …
No, that’s what your supposed to do. In weight lifting, you need to push it if you’re serious about making gains.

Just because their …
Just because their easier to perform doesn’t make them for begginers. When you start working out you need a serious boost of testosterone so you shoud use compound excercises on free weights, such as deathlift, squat, bench press. Machines won’t give you that.
March 9th, 2010 at 9:36 am
Nope. You’re the …
Nope. You’re the one who’s confused ma’am. Machines are less intimidating because they’re only designed to do one exercise. Beginners are confused about which exercise to do when they see free weights. they’re also easier to use because they’re on a fixed path.

What’s wrong with going to the max? A lot of these videos say 10-15 reps but I have been going until I can’t possibly do another rep… is there anything wrong with doing that?
March 9th, 2010 at 9:36 am
this is not a …
this is not a excercise for the begginers. newbies should focus on free weights, not isolation machines

i honestly think that this guy is one of the very few who actually knows what they are doinf in expert village. i like watched a ton of vidoes and barely any of them helped at ALL.

I have always …
I have always revolved reps week to week, to keep the body confused and attack different types of muscle fiber. I varied reps from 3-4 one week, 6-8, and finally 10-12.
3-4 reps week was 90% of max lift
6-8 was 80% of max lift
and 10 -12 was 70% of max lift
This seemed to keep the body growing, but form is a must, or you will injure yourself. Rest is a must also, you have to get enough sleep to heal.
Eventually you need to mix things up or you will plateau quit gaining.
