    DB work

    When i do 5sets of 5, the weight is incriminted by 5 pounds, and for easy numbers, let say i can dumbell press 10lbs for the full 5x5, but when i move to 15 i do 5 for the first set, 4 for the second set, 2 for the third set...should i move the weight back down to 10? or stay at 15 and just do what i can do?

    yes form is HUGE. I would also try to get to know your strength well enough so that you can do all your sets without dropping the weight. It may be mental for me but i feel like crap when i am forced to drop the weight for my final set, i feel like i failed or something.
    Damn
