Understanding how to increase weights, sets, reps, and/or effort based on your training level and program type is crucial to get the most out of your training.

Progressive overload gets confused because of the term "overload" when it's really about working within current capabilities to challenge yourself and progress over time.

Our bodies are incredibly adaptive machines.

They quickly get used to whatever stress we put on them... and then stop changing unless we intelligently modify that stress.

That's why I'm dedicating our next Physique University live coaching call to the science of progressive overload, which is the missing link for most lifters in their 40s and beyond who feel stuck.

Today (Tuesday June 3, 2025) at 1pm Eastern (replay will be available to everyone who signs up), I'm breaking down exactly when to:

• Add weight to the bar
• Increase reps
• Add more sets
• Push closer to failure

You can get this training (including the replay and everything else in Physique University) free for your first two weeks when you join now.

You'll get immediate access to the private community, your personalized nutrition plan, workout programs designed for real progress, and Tuesday's live call on progressive overload.
