  • โ€ข Deload every 4-6 weeks (reduce to 60% 1RM)
  • โ€ข Track all workouts to monitor progress
  • โ€ข Retest 1RM every 6-12 weeks
  • โ€ข Nutrition and sleep crucial for strength gains
  • โ€ข Don't train to true 1RM frequently (injury risk)

โš ๏ธ Safety First

  • โ€ข Always use a spotter for heavy lifts
  • โ€ข Master form before adding weight
  • โ€ข Stop if you feel sharp pain
  • โ€ข Use safety bars/pins when available
  • โ€ข Don't ego lift - train smart
  • โ€ข Consider belt for lifts >85% 1RM
