Progressive overload is one of the most important concepts in building strength and muscle. If you're not applying progressive overload, you are unlikely to see much progress. For that reason, I thought it important to devote a whole episode to reviewing what it is and how to apply it to your weight training. It is really hard to ensure you're applying progressive overload if you are not tracking. For that reason, I'm offering a free tracker that you are welcome to use: Download my free tracker from www.befitafter40.com/tracker. In this episode I'll answer the following questions: ✨ What is progressive overload and why does it matter?✨ How can I apply progressive overload in my weight training workouts?✨ How often should I increase the weight I am using✨ Does progressive overload work for all rep ranges?✨ How much weight should I add when I increase the weight?✨ Can you apply progressive overload in a group fitness class?✨ Can you apply progressive overload when doing bodyweight exercises?Take a listen and make sure you're applying progressive overload too!#progressiveoverload #weighttrainingtips #resistancetraining #bodyweightexercises #repranges #whentoincreaseweights #weightlifting #trainingtracker #setsandreps  #fitnessjourney #learntoliftweights #beginnerweighttraining #fitforlife #strongover40 #strongover50 #onlinefitnesscoach #personaltrainer #befitafter40 #fitforlifeSupport the showHow I can help you on your fitness journey: Join my Strong for Summer 6-week group program.
