Lately I've been thinking we would all make much better progress if, on every lift, we stuck with the same amount of weight until we could rep it ~15 times.
Start with say 50lb dumbbells for curls . Maybe you only get it a few times. Stick with that weight every workout until eventually you rep it ~15 times. Then go up in weight to maybe 65lbs, or whatever size dumbbell you can only do a few times. Then stick with that weight until you can get it ~15 times. Then repeat.
I think if we all followed a regimen like this it would ensure progress overload, make progress/gains inevitable and essentially unending to a point, and we would all probably be much stronger at this point.
