    Beth–Good question. Load by feel means use weight that is unique to you, concentrating on the technique more so then focusing on how much weight you can do the lift with. The goal is to sharpen your technique as opposed to just getting the bar over your head however. This is for skill development. If the instructions said to use a percentage of a 1 rep max and that number wasn’t conducive to your skill development then it’s pointless. Load by feel gives you the opportunity to work on skill without the pressure of hitting a particular number. You want to increase the weight each set, but stay within the boundaries of sharp technique.

    Hope that helps!

    Good morning George, Janie & Beth

    Wow 19 comments yesterday. I’m impressed.

    What’s our record for most comments?

    Obviously ben has some influence on his people LOL

    Good morning everyone!

    George, I want a tank (m) and sweatshirt. I’m guessing the sweatshirts are unisex sizing? If so, I’ll take a small.

    Kelly I think the record for comments was when George put up a picture of my abs!
    Oh wait… Those were Angelos abs, not mine! So easily confused!

    Good afternoon Kelly!

    The record is somewhere in the vicinity of 22 or 24.

    Lauren–You’re very demanding! Back off lady.

    Jen D.–I was forced to type this through tears because I laughed so hard. You’re a funny chick Jen D.!

    Me, demanding??? I’m usually the one receiving the demands.

    Oh, next time, you better say “hello” back to me before criticizing my comment. Oh wait, was I being demanding again? Good, deal with it!
