The research is quite freaky (even sedentary people can radically improve their blood glucose levels) but I expect the more useful knowledge of it for we more mobile humans is that explains the unreasonable effectiveness of walking above a threshold level for steady weight loss.

I did 115lbs for 5 reps yesterday. What increment would that count as? I don't even know what was decided. 
If we're doing 30, 40, 50, 60kg then put me down for 5 x 50kg, though.

Nice!
We're going in steps of 20 kg / 45 lb, though.
So it's 20-40-60.
We don't have a 50 kg tier.

Dang. Guess I'll have to keep working until I can get to the 60kg tier. All in good time.

Yeah, the progressions are going to be a bitch!
If people all had 10 kg change plates those would qualify as 'big plates'.
