Welcome back!

This is part 2 of our progression mini series, we talk about exercise dosing strategies. In this episode, we break down exactly what changes when you move from beginner to intermediate...and give you a concrete system to keep progressing for years.

Here's some of the stuff we talk about:

-Why progress slows down and spreads out...and how to measure it correctly 

-How to structure training in blocks so you're always moving forward 

-Why performance fluctuates workout to workout and what to do about it 

-How to leverage and refine your understanding of proximity to failure

-The RPE framework for compounds vs. accessories...and why backing off actually builds more 

-Why grinding reps above RPE 8 on big lifts is costing you more than it's giving you 

-How to auto regulate on bad days without derailing your program 

-The exact mistakes that stall intermediate lifters and how to avoid them

-Specific training strategies to add to your program (on top of the stuff from episode 1)

Simplify exercise loading because at the end of the day...it's not that deep. (I spent years over complicating this stuff)
