If you leave the gym feeling beat up or you're not building muscle the way you expected, this episode is for you. Today, I break down some of the biggest progression mistakes I see and explain why training harder isn't always the answer. Sometimes the way you progress your training is what holds you back.
I also go over a few simple changes you can make to your training that can help you recover better and keep making progress. I explain why you don't need to chase a new PR every workout, how to think about rep ranges, and when it actually makes sense to increase the weight. If your workouts have been leaving you feeling more beat up than stronger, this episode will help you train in a way that's more productive over the long term.
