In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I dive deep into a ton of different progression models for you to try, specifically for those of you who are more intermediate and advanced in your training career. If you’re a beginner, your only focus is learning how to train hard and use progressive overload with perfect form. Once you milk your newbie gains, you have to start being more strategic with your training. If that’s you, this podcast is for you, as well as the article linked in the show notes today, to give you a useful visual on some of the progression models discussed.
