Knowing When to Increase Weights as a Beginner

When I first started lifting I honestly had no idea when I was supposed to increase the weights 😭 I'd either stick to the same weight for weeks or try going heavier before I was actually ready I've been focusing on getting comfortable with my reps and making sure my form stays solid before adding more weight I've realised that even getting an extra rep or improving my technique counts as progress there's no need to rush things when you're still building strength. How do you guys know when it's time to move up in weight? 💪

Bro I usually increase the weight once I can hit all my reps with good form 💪

used to increase weights way too quickly and my form suffered badly 😭

Facts man getting stronger takes time.

I focus on adding a few reps first and then move up to the next weight when it feels manageable

same 😭 sometimes even getting one extra rep feels like a huge achievement

Honestly tracking your workouts makes it so much easier to know when you're ready to increase the weight

Do you guys increase the weight every week or just whenever you feel ready?

patience is key
