Ever feel like you're stumbling through your workouts, unsure if you're doing too much or too little to reach your fitness goals? We've all been there, but fret not, because this episode is your compass to navigating the world of sets and reps in resistance training. I'll walk you through the differences between warm-ups and working sets, revealing the exact formula to hit that sweet spot of maximum gains with minimum gym time. Plus, we share the secret of progressive overload - the key ingredient to breaking through plateaus and keeping your gains coming, whether you're new to the gym or an old hand at the iron game.
There's a common misconception that more is always better when it comes to training, but let me tell you, it's not about how much you lift, it's about how you lift it. In today's episode, we discuss the magic of the minimal effective dose and why, sometimes, less is indeed more. Get ready to learn why you don't need to push yourself to failure every session to see results, and how smart progression and understanding your body's cues can make all the difference. I'll also share a story of a client who found herself stuck but leaped forward in her fitness journey by tweaking her routine with our guidance.
Finally, as we wrap things up, a heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who joined us in the Inflammation Nation conversation.
