Episode description
Today we're taking you through one of the more confusing parts of following a structured workout program: how to choose your weights! Some programs (like RISE) use RPE, some use RIR, and some use percentages, but the reality is none of these systems are perfect, and there are pros and cons to all of them. Today we deep dive into how to use RPE (rate of perceived exertion) and why it's our favorite method for selecting weights!
