Are you the person who tries Rx and grinds through a workout in 25 minutes when it was supposed to take 10? Or the one who scales so light you're done in four and barely breathing? In this solo episode of Unstoppable by Design, Matt Terry breaks down what it actually means to modify with a purpose, why "Rx" isn't the goal, and how to make scaling decisions that match the intent of every workout.

"Rx is not the goal. The stimulus is the goal. The Rx is just one of many paths to get there, and for a lot of people, on a lot of days, it's not the right path."

In this episode, we deep dive into:

• What "Stimulus" Actually Means: The word coaches throw around all the time, finally explained in a way you can use the next time you walk into the gym.
• Why Rx Isn't a Badge: How chasing the prescribed weight can quietly steal the workout you actually needed today.
• Knowing Your Own Engine: The data you should already be collecting on yourself, no notebook required, that turns scaling from a guess into a calculated decision.
• The One Test for Smart Scaling: A simple question to ask before every workout that keeps your modification honest to the intent.
• Modifying Around an Injury, the Right Way: A real wall ball example with three different scales, each one keeping the stimulus while protecting the limitation.
• Why Scaling Is a Skill: And why getting it wrong sometimes is part of getting it right long-term.
