Today we’re breaking down the two concepts that completely transform results for women over 40: RPE and progressive overload.
If you’ve ever wondered:
“Am I lifting heavy enough…?”
“Why am I not getting stronger…?”
or “How do I know if I’m actually pushing myself?”
…this episode is your shortcut to clarity.
Inside, I explain:
What RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) really means
What an RPE 7, 8, or 9 should feel like
Why strength gains happen in those final challenging reps
How progressive overload works — without complicated programming
How we use RPE inside Inspire Fitness to help women lift safely and effectively at home
Why “comfortable” workouts won’t change your body
And how to push yourself without risking injury or burnout
You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to approach your lifts so you can build strength, muscle definition, energy, and confidence - no matter your age, fitness level, or equipment.
If you want better results from your workouts, this episode is a must-listen.
