how to lift light for more gains?

[euiskei]

I'm looking for some weight training advice. I'm interested in lifting light to make more gains. Do you think that I should go high repetitions and lower weight? I was thinking, for example, on bench press going at 200 pounds but doing maybe 20 or 25 repetitions. Do you think this is a good strategy to get more gains or should I try something else?

The Ronnie Coleman style of lifting big weights with big repetitions does have some merit. However, most people may end up getting injured doing that strategy. So, nothing wrong with lifting more lightly.

Sometimes lifting lighter is smart. You won't end up with injuries, and you'll stay healthier longer.

I'm a big fan of lifting light on certain exercises, but if you want to get stronger, you're not going to be able to lift light. You've got to go heavier so that your body has a more of an adjustment.
