Default Most Important thing to know
I am just starting lifting. As the name states I have no experience with this. What would everyone on here list as the most important thing to know when one is first starting. I will take any advice that I can get. I am so ready for this!

If you are going to compete, set your openers at your ability, not your ego.

Be consistent. Focus on reasonable progression. Pick a solid routine and do it as it is written for the first 8-12 months or until progression stops.

A Big Josh sighting!

Funny, I saw the thread title and I was thinking as I clicked on it I would say consistency over time.

You beat me to it.

expect results + hard work toward results = results

Too many approach this with no expectations, just a wish and a prayer. Expect things to happen and then focus on the work necessary. Don't get caught up in everything else, don't over think, just do the work. Finally watch it work. Simple summary? work the plan and let the plan work.
