Good day comrades! How has your exercising been going this week?
I got some paint on my brake disks. Used up some truck bed liner spray on the inside of the disks so I had to finish the outside with a can gray metal spray paint I had laying around. Will probably do a light coat of more liner spray when I get some just to match them up. I’m hoping to get some more like these in the futures and make several sets of 10lb weights to use with dumbbells. I need to move up to 40s soon but if I make them out of solid concrete they’ll be almost too big to maneuver properly. lol.
Honestly whatever weight you feel comfortable with that’s getting you gains. There’s no magical number or percentage. I’m a bigger individual but my squat is lower due to just not having trained that area in my youth and now my joints can’t handle a whole lot. Growth is slow so I just take it at a slow pace as I build up but it takes a lot of time. Some people can start out higher and grow faster. Age is a big factor. Just do whatever weight feels right and get results.
