Progressive Overload (Part 2): Planning for Effective Overload
Wednesday, 20 September, 2017
This episode is part of a three part series on progressive overload. In this episode we cover: -Powerlifting is a numbers-driven sport. -Metrics are numbers that provide details around your performance in the gym or on a competition platform. -Knowing the ‘most weight lifted’ for a particular exercise is important, but it’s only one of many metrics that can be tracked and used to assess performance. -Athletes’ training needs to shift from viewing progress on a workout-to-workout basis to carefully monitoring key training metrics over a longer period of time.
