QUOTE(Lionel90 @ Dec 26 2018, 11:51 PM) For isolation I couldn't do as suggested though. Say for lateral raise, while I could get too many reps with 5kg, when I tried to move on to 7.5kg I couldn't move it without using momentum at all, which is why I kept using the same weight and find ways to increase the intensity by increasing the reps as well as cutting the rest time... Any way to go around it without ego lifting? At some point, you really need to push yourself to lift heavier weight. If you can only do 1 rep using the extra weight, so be it. Try again next session until your muscles can adapt. Gradually, your one rep max will be 2 reps.. then 5 reps.. then 8 reps.. etc.. if you keep lifting the same weight for months, your body will be too comfortable with that weight and you will not progress. In your mind, you need to tell your body it can do it and really push it (but in a safe way). Lets say you cant progress with lateral raises.. then find a way around to strengthen your side delts by using alternative exercises.

QUOTE(Lionel90 @ Dec 28 2018, 12:27 AM) Yeah, I understand progressive overload and other methods of keep getting the gains in. I do think that I have probably outgrow the poundage I have been using. Just back from another training session, and fck, I really am stronger than I think. Could even increase the weight for lateral raise for reps although not with the full ROM.  Probably you need to re-look on your technique as well.
