@ the gym - how much are you lifting?

Hey gals - how much weight are we allowed (or recommended) to lift when using either free weights or arm equipment/machines?

  • That's a good question. I have been wondering the same thing.  Sorry, I'm not any help. :-)

  • No restrictions as long as I don't lift over my head.  I have back issues anyway so over my head is not allowed.  I lift DS all day long.  That is about 28lbs and at least 50 reps a day:)

  • I am doing light weight and high reps.  For arms I'm just doing 10 or 12 lb. free weights instead of doing 15 or 20 lbs. that I used pre-pregnancy.  I stopped doing leg training because I'm just upping my resistance on the elliptical.  Plus I noticed my sciatic nerve is killing me after I do the leg press.  Just listen to your body.
