6 weeks is the general number for keeping a routine generally the same?

6-8 weeks is usually a good timing pattern between routines, especially for beginners.
Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.
The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.
well my question is should i keep the same weight until i get the full 10 8 6 4 .. the once i get it bump everything up 5 pounds again till i can get it again?

I'd say if your not increasing the reps on with the weight for a few consecutive weeks, still add some weight like 5lbs. You may not really be challenging your body enough and don't realise it. Half of what we lift is in our mind!![]()
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
