Completed Grasshopper W1D1 this morning.

It's an 8 week beginner program divided into 2 4 week sections. I'm going to do the first 4 weeks of the program using only the bar to concentrate on form as I get used to the movements and reps then start increasing the weight in week 4. I'll do the last 4 weeks with increased weights but still staying well under the real % off max rep. After the program, I'll take yalls advice on evaluating my max rep weight and start the next program using his actual weight advice.



if i was you, i would do first 4 weeks as you have planned, then start the program over completely for 12 weeks of training. Just keep it light as you are going to expierence lots of changes in intermuscular coordination.

Appreciate the advice. Maybe I'll figure out my true max after 4 weeks and then use 80% of that as my training max when I restart? I have no problem taking it very slow in the beginning. I dont want to hurt myself and I want to make sure I am building a good foundation moving forward. I have a home gym I built so taking time is not a problem. It took me a while this morning because i watched multiple videos on proper form before each movement and my two minute rests between sets was spent rewatching the videos
