Bopuc's Journal, 20 September 2016

Well, I've lost 10 lbs (since late June)while increasing the weight I'm lifting(full body dumbbell routine, 50 minutes, three sets of 8 to 12 reps). It appears I'm up against my strength wall and struggle now to get the last rep up. Should I decrease the weight to get good form where I'm at, or drop the reps and add weight again. I want to lose another 5 lbs to be at 15% bf. Any suggestions are welcome.

I usually drop the reps and increase the weight - progressive overload - on the last set.
