Progressive overload is at the core of every strength program I write. It simply means doing a bit more over time—more weight, more reps, slower tempo. This steady challenge forces your muscles to adapt and grow.
I tell my clients: you don’t need to destroy yourself every session. What matters is consistent progression. Track your lifts. Try to add 1–2 reps or a little weight every week or two. Over months, those small changes build serious strength.
Muscle doesn’t grow from doing the same thing forever. Keep pushing your edge—safely and smartly.
