Progressive overload is a fundamental fitness principle. To build strength and mass, you need to gradually increase the intensity, frequency, or volume of your routine. The same principle applies when facing adversity and going through hard times. In this episode, we are joined by William Elliott and Killian Hamilton. William talks about dealing with a genetic cardiovascular disease since childhood, powerlifting, and finding fulfillment in helping other people. His perspective on adversity and resilience enables him to live life and do the things he enjoys. This episode offers an inspiring outlook on life’s struggles and helping others.
