Progressive overload is a fundamental training principle in strength training, muscle building, and athletic performance enhancement. Firstly, its base is that the human body adapts to stress. Therefore, to continually stimulate improvements in strength, muscle size, and endurance, you must progressively increase the stress on your muscles during exercise.

Engaging in progressive overload ensures your body receives constant challenges, forcing it to adapt to higher stress levels. As a result, this adaptation process leads to increased muscle fiber recruitment and improved neural adaptations. Moreover, the adaptation process also generates physiological changes that contribute to greater strength, muscle growth and endurance.

During this episode, I cover the many important aspects of this fundamental training principle. Implementing progressive overload will enhance your strength, muscle growth, and overall muscle performance. I hope this episode inspires you to try this fundamental training principle immediately. You won\u2019t regret it. \u201cProgressive overload is the science and the foundation of muscle growth and strength.\u201d \u2014Funk RobertsIn This Episode:
