American College of Sports Medicine: suitible to use weights that include the body mass as a source of resistance. 7 or 8 free weights. Research shows that growth plate injuries do not occur when basic guidelines are followed.

I was texting, looking around at random stuff online, etc.
Spent very little actual time on my questions.
wasted the majority of my time be distracted by one thing or the other.

I was generally researching, though not really focused on the topic.
Mostly reading stuff, looking at pictures, videos that were not really helpful. I was often distracted by stuff online or the web, or Messaging people.
I needed to be reminded by others (students or teachers) to focus on my work.

I was focused on my questions throughout the period.
I persued multiple questions or found multilpe sources for complex questions.
I often recorded evidence/information from my research as I went
I occasionally got distracted though was able to refocus quickly without anyone reminding me
