@Forgotmypasswordsgain I would go for 5kg, especially for legs, they can take it. I went from 3 to 6kg and it wasn’t too taxing on most exercises, the only ones you’ll probably be stuck on 3s for a while (like me!) are some of the shoulder ones like lateral raises etc.
@BigButtons I often wonder what the difference between lower weights/more reps vs higher weights/ fewer reps is. Maybe the sweet point is higher weights where you can manage more reps? Perhaps everyone has a specific weight at which they start bulking up as opposed to simply toning?
My arms are quite defined now, but only because they were fairly spindly before so any change equals definition. By backside and belly, however, not so much. On both there still is a stubborn layer which is concealing the six pack below. My bum is higher, but the layer of blob is still there and it’s still making my backside more sticky-outy than it would normally be.
I was thinking if tackling it by embracing the16/8 fasting plan, but we eat dinner later here and I couldn’tcope with not eating anything at all until 1. Maybe I’ll try 14/10 which is more fitting for my lifestyle, if it works. Far too much wine, panettone and chocolate in these last couple of weeks.
