Summary
In this episode, I break down key points about progressive overload — what it actually is, why your body demands it, and the full spectrum of adaptations it triggers. I go beyond just "add weight every week" and dig into the variables you can manipulate, how frequently to push them, and how to read your body's signals along the way.
