there is plenty of information online about healthy weights related to height. You need a health diet and body composition to reflect that weight/height balance.

2019-01-11 21:26:13 UTC  

my margin is between 145-155 to feel goood n have good energy

2019-01-11 21:26:18 UTC  

im 214 so close enough i guess but i also lift a lot

2019-01-11 21:26:24 UTC  

ignore bmi as it is a load of shit.

2019-01-11 21:26:39 UTC  

It's about what goals you want to work towards, and then do proper supp and diet

2019-01-11 21:26:48 UTC  

Yea everyone is different

2019-01-11 21:27:02 UTC  

Some people want the bodybuilder look, others powerlift, some for athletic performance

2019-01-11 21:27:02 UTC  

eat right n get good exercise... ur bod will tell u the rest

2019-01-11 21:27:11 UTC  

bmi is based on average weight vs height and doesnt factor in body composition or lifestyle

2019-01-11 21:27:48 UTC  

Bodybuilding is high volume...lighter weight usually but more reps 10x10s. Powerlifters, 5x5 maybe or lower but really heavy

2019-01-11 21:27:51 UTC  

it all depends

2019-01-11 21:28:01 UTC  

strength is not a big requirement in the modern world. machines do much of the heavy lifting.

2019-01-11 21:28:26 UTC  

Two main types of hypertrophy too

2019-01-11 21:28:37 UTC  

speed, endurance and power. now that is something to aim for.

2019-01-11 21:28:42 UTC  

The way I like to train^^

2019-01-11 21:28:44 UTC  

yea that

2019-01-11 21:29:04 UTC  

but still, a machine is very much likely to beat you in the modern world. ha!

2019-01-11 21:29:08 UTC  

Althetic and capable of being able to do sports. Strength and conditioning

2019-01-11 21:29:25 UTC  

no doxxes

2019-01-11 21:29:36 UTC  

virtue signalling

2019-01-11 21:30:07 UTC  

? we are merely talking about health.

2019-01-11 21:30:14 UTC  

Conditioning i like to do are call burst workouts, but they're basically HIIT type circuit conditioning

2019-01-11 21:30:23 UTC  

^^

2019-01-11 21:30:26 UTC  

Lots of burpees and stuff

2019-01-11 21:30:29 UTC  

sprints

2019-01-11 21:30:34 UTC  

I only do HIT

2019-01-11 21:30:40 UTC  

For lifting- train in all rep ranges

2019-01-11 21:30:54 UTC  

I work out 20-25 mins max.. more time for me

2019-01-11 21:31:04 UTC  

eh i only lift heavy stuff, squats there and there, 60min cardio per week

2019-01-11 21:31:05 UTC  

enough for me

2019-01-11 21:31:06 UTC  

those will work on your posture quit a bit, posture is very important. especially pertaining to effective movements with little injury risk.

2019-01-11 21:31:08 UTC  

3-5 reps for a bit 6-10, then 12-15

2019-01-11 21:31:22 UTC  

fail at 5, for strength heavy weight

2019-01-11 21:31:42 UTC  

it's hard to count when you're lifting

2019-01-11 21:31:49 UTC  

so the best strategy is doing it to failure imo

2019-01-11 21:31:52 UTC  

always keep your body guessing and adapting

2019-01-11 21:31:57 UTC  

@hel I never count I go to fail

2019-01-11 21:32:17 UTC  

doing the same routine for too long and that's guaranteed plataeu\

2019-01-11 21:32:22 UTC  

Except my last rep, that I do count

2019-01-11 21:32:59 UTC  

Last rep is GAINS rep

2019-01-11 21:33:08 UTC  

Going to failure is how I like to train, that's why the range is helpful. Just pick a weight where you'll fail at around 6-8 and you don't need to count
