I started doing BB I think 2 years ago, but then, everything is not right. Not in good form, skip leg day, mass protein all the way, more isolated than compound exercise. Starting to get serious I think this year, if my memory serve me right.
This is from my experience, in 6mths you should be able to push min 50kg on incline BP (10 x 4), min 30kg on OHP, this is done on strict technique ( 6mths training / 3-4x in a weeks). No BOUNCING, no JERKING, NO BODY ENGLISH (ROCKING YOUR BODY). When doing DB lateral raise, start and fjnish of DB should be at the side of your thighs, not in front of the thighs if not, there will be tendecy to bounce your movement, at the top of DB lateral raise your knuckle should pointed to the ceiling. DB or BB curl, try to keep your elbow in place. If you move your elbow too much during biceps exercise it means weight too heavy. Max rest 3min in between sets, normally lower. In term of training try to use free weight 1st and compound movement. BTW weight that I used here were total weight including bar. There will be time that you can BOUNCE or JERK but not when you are beginner.
Let's say you want to start new training program, 1st understand the program itself cater to what group. Beginner, Intermediate, Advance (season Pro 😎).
Beginner - Omth to 6mths. Intermediate - 1 and a half years / 2 years. Advance - more then 2 years training.
A lot of newbie make mistakes by doing Advance training. Going too heavy too soon and they will burn out eventually or worse get injured while doing it. If it's early stage, Beginner keep your training simple and short. Much more benefit.
