67. Lifting "Heavy" Isn't About the Weight. Here's What it Really Means
Thursday, 5 March, 2026

So many women are lifting weights, but not in a way that builds muscle. In this episode of The LEANbody Show, I'm breaking down what lifting heavy actually means, how progressive overload really works, and why this matters so much for muscle, fat loss, and metabolic health. You'll learn: The biggest misconceptions around "lifting heavy". Clear signs your weights may be too light to build muscle. What progressive overload looks like in real life. Why consistency without intensity keeps women stuck. If your workouts feel easy, familiar, or the same month after month — this episode is your wake-up call. Work With Me: ✨ Studio Strength Programs Structured workouts with built-in progressive overload. Home or gym.
