For me, it's following the 5x5 workout routine: https://stronglifts.com/

It's 6am in Seattle right now. I woke up and I'm about to go to the gym and do my 5x5 workout. I do this 3 times a week and it changed my life ever since I started doing it two years ago.

5x5 is super useful when you start out lifting (I used it) but as you get better it might make sense to shift to other workout programs. I also definitely had times where I skipped a few increments or stayed at the same weight for a set.
