Getting Started with Lifting
- Vinnie shares one of his biggest mistakes in weight training. (3:30)
- Going to failure every time is not a good idea.
- What is a “set” and a “rep”? (14:15)
- What matters is the amount of time under pressure. (19:30)
- Look at the rep’s quality and keep your form correct.
- Is there a particular approach to starting based on gender, age, or other factors? (28:00)
- Age can be a factor, but experience is the real factor.
- Vinnie describes how to gauge if you are lifting enough weight for you. (29:00)
- How frequently are you supposed to hit each muscle group? (32:00)
