Quick online training question – Use weight amount?
I’d like to offer basic training plans online. For those of you who do this, do you write in the weight to use or just advise how heavy the weight should feel? I feel it makes more sense to advise how they should feel (i.e. you should have proper form but the last two reps should be very challenging, or, you should be able to do these reps for a full minute, etc) but didn’t know the best way to get that across. Thanks!
I agree with telling them how they should feel, especially since you are dealing with different fitness levels and experience. Now depending on the type of plan I am writing up, I will do a percentage of their one rep max. (ex: Bicep Curls at 60% 1RM performing 8 reps and 3 sets)
Since I am starting to do online training, hope you don’t mind but I will be following this conversation.
