- Are you struggling with choosing the right weight that allows you to make progress? Do you think you may be under-loading or do you go all the way to failure each time?
Check out this video where I cover how to choose the correct weight and how to know if you need to go UP (or down) in weight as well as breaking down and understanding what RPE and RIR are - common lifting terms you've likely seen and heard!

So detailed and informative. Thanks for sharing all you know!!
This all now makes sense. I am definitely an under loader using RPE. I plan on using these tips on my next lifting session. I don't know why I never thought if the weight felt light it was ok to increase the load the next round to hit the RPE. Not sure what was going on in my brain.
Happy it makes more sense and you are ready to load heavier!
So helpful! Thanks Lyss!
You're welcome!
I have heard of RIR but never really understood what it meant, especially in relation to RPE like this. I loved this explanation! Definitely helpful for figuring out what to lift in the gym. Excited to try it out.
Excited for you!
As someone who constantly thought failure was the only way always, I can appreciate this SO much. 💕
Yay! So glad!
Thank you. I didn’t really learn anything new, but was just reminded to be patient. Especially when starting a new program with new exercises. Take the time to figure out the correct weight so that moving forward with the program I’m progressing properly and not overworking.
Yes!!
Very well explained and concise Ty
You betcha!
Great explanation, thank you! I'm usually a lot more accurate with accessory RPE/RIR than with compound lifts, but tend to under shoot cause I'd rather not hurt myself 🙃😅.
Totally understand! It can take some experimenting!
Love this! My favorite takeaways are that it definitely takes some experimenting and You don’t have to go all out all the time!
Yes! THIS!

Thanks. Excellent explanation.
Sure thing!
Great explanation and reminder for me what rpe is and best way to use it in my workouts! I’m the excited to go heavy person so good refresher on how rpe 6-8 can be so beneficial!
100%!!
I learned that it really is going to be a trial and error! RPE will vary as we get stronger. Feel a little more confident trying to figure that out
A little more confidence can go such a long way!
Thank you for this. Ive read this many times in Train, but this video really helped me understand it.
Love to hear it!
Makes so much more sense, thanks Lyss!
Of course!
Thank you! I am new to lifting, and this was a great explanation about choosing the right weight- one thing I definitely struggle with right now. And I love the explanation of RPE, as I really didn't understand it before.
Happy you have a solid understanding now and can implement it!
This was very helpful. This info will help me with choosing the correct weight as I am always trying to get the best and most out of my weight training. Thank you!
Love hearing it was helpful!
I do my best to hit them but if I’m in a rush and don’t have time for another couple sets to get it right I just make a note for the next week to up it! It all shakes out. Love this topic !!!!
There's always been a shroud of mystery around RPE -- what is it, how do you calculate it, and how do you know you're doing it right. This video was helpful for me to learn the answers to those questions and break it down in a simple way. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I didnt know that going to failure wasn’t always advantageous in the gym!! Thanks lyss!
You betcha!
Thank you! Great video and explanation! I definitely under gage my weights 😂 but we getting better!
Onward and upward!
A good recap! I probably have to pay more attention to compounds like DLs so that I’m not always going to 9/10. Other lifts I think I hit 8 pretty well using the techniques you described.
Yes! It can take more focus for compound lifts vs accessory lifts. You got this!
I'm still confused! I'm 70 and want to improve my VO2 numbers. Just starting out with an exercise program and want to know if I can just use my heart rate to improve my VO2 max. And if yes what does it have to be at for me to show improvement? I will be biking and walking. Thanks.
