Weight training is weird.

You would think, lifting all you can, as fast as you can would be the best.
But it is usually not.

Like, lift a certain weight until both sides of your body feels that it is equally light.
Like, lifting slow and smoothly often gives a better work out.
Like sometimes taking a week off can get you that gain after you plateaued. (and sometimes not)

For some, it is dumbbells, for other barbells, for other it is throwing heavy tires around that works.

I wish there was more weight lifting channels that actually covered the gamut and showed why certain things work for certain people, and what to detail for you.

Sort:  

It is a tough situation because how people's bodies respond is different and the sleep factor, and diet factor is huge as well. Also each individual almost has to go through this period of testing their abilities and will ultimately get over trained to understand that threshold and when their CNS is shot.

Also depending what someone is training for. I'm setting myself up for explosive athletic output with a splash of physique as a secondary by product.

If I was just going for a good physique I feel like that is easier in a lot of ways but more painful from a diet stand point.
