a good indicator to to increase weight, is the ease of the final set. by example...


say you do three sets of ten at optimal weight...on the third set try for more than ten...if you can accomplish 3 or more reps than what your set amount originally was, increase the amount of weight by 10-15 lbs the NEXT time your scheduled to work out that part of the body...if you work out consistently...youll be adding weight every two weeks until you reach plateau...

When you reach plateau...you need to start working every set until failure....lift and do as many reps per set as your body will let you...
