I know everyone is different, but what are the typical sustainable gains? I don't mean initial creatine gains. If someone uses creatine, then I mean the gains they continue getting a month later. I also don't mean gains from straining harder or doing assisted reps.
I mean in the second month of beginner lifting, how many pounds does someone's 10 rep max go up from the beginning of the month to the end of the month? I'm guessing some's 10 rep max weight is what they'd use do to 6, 6, 6.
I'm just asking this because I was adding 5 pounds every other day for 5 workouts, and then hit a wall, and I wonder if my recovery is wrong or if that was just an unsustainable increase.
