Are you ready to take your fitness journey to the next level? In this episode, we’re diving into the concept of progressive overload—what it is, why it’s essential, and how to apply it to your workouts for steady, sustainable gains. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your approach, progressive overload is the key to building strength, muscle, and confidence over time.

We’ll break down how to implement this training principle, explore the RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) and RIR (Reps in Reserve) scales to measure effort, and discuss research-backed strategies that especially benefit women. Plus, we’ll cover the importance of deloading, recovery, and how progressive overload helps prevent injury—so you can train smarter, not harder. Tune in for real-life examples, practical tips, and the science behind your best results yet!
