in Getting Started
Tried the build a workout routine section of the app.

Lower body

1) Elliptical: 12 to 16 minutes increasing resistance by 4 every 4 minutes.

2) Reducing goblet squats

Start with ten squats with no weight to see how you feel.

Based on that select your first dumbell weight.

For example 40lbs

Squat 40lbs 10 times
Then 30lbs 10 times
Then 20lbs 10 times
Then 10 lbs 10 times

50 squats in total

If you start with 50lbs:

10 no weight, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10lbs

    I always go the other direction. I find I get stronger as I get into it. YMMV of course.

    How’s the lifestyle changes going in week 3, Chris? Glad to see you still checking in.

    Depends on rest times between sets of squats. If you immediately move to the next, it's easier to go down in weight as Chris did, similar to doing a rack-run of DB curls.
