Progression, explained
Six short pages on how strength training moves forward: when to add weight, what a rep range is for, what a plateau looks like and what to do about it. None of it needs an app.
Each page builds on the one before, and each one stands on its own.
Progressive overload: what it is, and how to keep doing it
,Why a lift has to keep asking a little more, and what a 2.5 kg step really is.
Double progression: when to increase the weight
,Reps first, then weight: the rule for when to go up.
Rep ranges: how many reps for muscle and strength
,What a range is for, and what 6, 10 or 20 reps actually change.
Strength plateau: a bad day, or a real stall?
,One bad session is noise. This is what a real plateau looks like.
Deload: a step back, or a deload week?
,A week off, a lighter week or one step back: what deloads are and when they help.
What is a PR in the gym? Weight, reps and estimated maxes
,Heavier is not the only record, and not every heavier set is one.
