The general recommendation for training with autoimmune disease is to keep intensity high while limiting tonnage. And to do the program correctly.
Hello!! My name is Adriano, i have 28 years old, 1.83cm height and 110kg weight.
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
I'm doing strength training for the first time in the last 3 years and i have no problens at all like pain or injuries until now. But i really want to see your opinion or sugestions about my current training. Here my workout:

So, in that case i should keep doing 5x5 like a maximum number of reps i should do, right?
Or i should low the reps in 5x3 for example?
Thank you very much and pls sorry my bad english
