Ok, i've been lifting weights for about a month now... today, this is what i was doing:
1st set: 95 pounds, 10 rep warmup set, no struggles whatsoever, could probably do a whole lot more if i wanted to, but i don't want to wear myself out...
2nd set: 125 pounds, 10 reps to failure
3rd set: 125 pounds, 9 reps to failure
4th set: I know my muscles can't take it so i drop down to 115 pounds, barely able to do 6 reps to failure... doh!
So yeah, is this a good routine, or should i do something different? I seem to have lots of trouble with the 4th set...
