Day 24/90

How heavy should women lift to build lean muscle without getting bulky? In Day 24 of the RAC Summer Recomp Series, you'll learn why the amount of weight on the dumbbell matters far less than how much tension your muscles experience. Robyn explains how progressive overload, reps in reserve (RIR), and training close to failure stimulate muscle growth and why lifting challenging weights—not light weights for endless reps—is the key to achieving the lean, "toned" look so many women are after.

You'll also learn the difference between Type I (endurance) and Type II (muscle-building) muscle fibers, why strength training should be the foundation of every body recomposition program, and where Pilates, yoga, and cardio fit into a well-balanced routine for women over 35.


Today's RAC Targets:

  • ​✅ Choose a weight that leaves only 1–3 reps in reserve (RIR) before failure.
  • ​✅ Progressively overload one exercise by increasing either the weight or the number of reps from your last workout.
  • ​✅ Safely experience true muscular failure on one exercise so you understand what training hard actually feels like.
