Progressive Overload Explained: Grow Muscle & Strength Today

Justin Lienhard on Instagram: "There are a lot of ways to increase strength but this way my preferred way. It fit in well with other things I was trying to do and with my personality type. This is a form of daily undulating periodization and I prefer it to linear or block models just because I get bored doing the same stuff for too long. Every three or four weeks I’d take a deload week where I just do two total body lifts for the week of lighter weight. #legs #squats #quads"

Nathanael Littauer on Instagram: "The reality is, the base matters. I ran 15-25 miles a week as a high school kid while training for wrestling. I was a national level weightlifter, and trained for strength sports for almost 10 years before I ever dabbled in both. A lot of times, the people we look at have ridiculously high bases that were developed in "silos" before they were combined into one. That's called periodization baby. #BuildingStrongerFutures"
