I’m looking for advice on doing low reps and high weights.
I know mobster is great with advice on heavy weights. But I want to hear from others as well.
Always been a high rep low weight type of guy. But the results just haven’t been there the way I had hoped I was talking to a couple buddies and they recommended that I changed things up and try something different because some muscle fibers and some genetics are different and require a change in training.
My question is simple what do you recommend for me when it comes to Low Reps should I shoot for two or three reps or should I shoot for more four or five reps and how do you avoid injuries when you’re doing heavy weights and low reps?

I keep low reps to 6-10

When transitioning to low reps and heavy weights, it's important to start gradually and focus on form. Begin with a weight that allows you to perform 3-5 reps with proper technique. As you become more comfortable, you can increase the weight slightly. Aim for 3-5 sets per exercise.

To avoid injuries, warm up thoroughly before lifting heavy weights. Focus on proper technique and use a weight that challenges you but allows you to maintain control throughout the movement. If you're unsure about your form, consider working with a trainer or experienced lifter to ensure you're lifting safely.
