Guys 3 days ago i decided to increase my dumbbell weight and i added 3kg (now 13kg each) i started working out, i could do the exercises but honestly it was hard af and the next day my muscles were hurting so fucking much, i mean they always hurt but they never did this much. did i do something wrong? did i fuck up my muscles?
I was thinking maybe it is too much? since im 52 kg myself
>inb4 faggot

No.
Rest a couple of days and try again - nothing to worry about unless it does not get better with more practice.
>>36788357
Also, the weight of dumbbells should vary with the exercises - you shouldn't be using the same weight for lateral raises and shoulder press (as an example). Also, adding 3kg when you started with 10kg is a pretty large increase all at once.

Why are people this stupid?
You increased the weight, which are you are obviously supposed to do if you feel you are ready for that.
Why dont you understand that the higher weight is going to feel very heavy for you and cause muscle soreness for some time.
I went to 34kg DB flat bench just 2 days ago ( from 32kg) and i i can barely press 5 reps with that weight.
Thats how you build muscle. You increase the weight, you train with that weight until it gets too easy, and then you increase the weight again and your muscle grow along.
>did i do something wrong? did i fuck up my muscles?
NO YOU IDIOT YOU DID EVERYTHING RIGHT, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT YOU FUCKED UP?
SORENESS?

Im not talking about flat bench DB press here, so 34kg on each hand.
Bench is 190.
I've been lifting for 8 months lol, that is a good weight for that period.
>DYEL?

>>36789599
>Thinks 34kg each hand is heavy
>Thinks this is good for 8months of training
>Nah son pls stop
>really pls
>>36789618
IT IS YOU FUCKING FAGGOT STOP E-STATING THIS HARD.The biggest motherfuckers in my gym who have been lifting for years only use 30-40kg dumbbells for chest press and they could crash your puny ass
>>36789679
Woah they must be huge, benchin 40s in each hand!! Kek

>>36789679

Also, i know 34kg isnt heavy. (not light either) But it is a good weight for someone who started lifting just lmao 8 months ago.
190 bench isnt much either, but again its a lot for lmao 8 months.
>>36789599

Those stats are pretty good if they are true.
>>36788357
Have one of your bros give you a quick massage before you blast your biceps again
>>36789882
3 months in and benching 44kg x 8 x 5
Those are pretty bad results for 8 months
>>36789904
Yeah i agree. Lifting since 1.5 months and benching 6 plates.
This guy is fucking dyel
>>36789962
6 pl8? DYEL?
1st day 8pl8 master race
Increasin weights doesnt mean your muscles got bigger. In the long run it does but mostly u probably just sacrified form to lift more. Growing muscle is harder than lifting heavy weights.
