Fitness Lit Breakdown with Dr. Nick Trubee

Progressively overloading through your working sets
Over the last few months I've had many conversations with clients and potential clients where their previous training was typically 3 sets of 15 reps where weight was held constant for the entire workout.
This may be more common than I had thought, or maybe it's just because I've never trained that way. I've always started with a lower resistance for maybe 12 reps, then started to drop reps and add weight with each progressing set. Something like a 12x10x8x6 rep scheme over 4 working sets, while bumping up resistance each set to challenge the new rep demand.
So for this episode, I wanted to dive into the many things you can take advantage, both physiologically and mentally, by dropping reps and adding weight with each set compared to the prior. I think this could be a game changer for you if this is new to you :)
