Ep88. The Secret Weapon Your Program Is Missing (Deloads)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Think a deload week means you're being soft? Think again.
If the words "rest week" make you feel guilty, this one's for you.
In this episode, we're breaking down what a deload actually is, why your body needs it, and why skipping it is probably the reason you keep plateauing or getting niggly little injuries.
You'll learn:
- What a deload week actually is (and what it isn't)
- Why constantly pushing hard without backing off works against you
- How to tell when your body is asking for one
- What a deload should look like in practice
- How to program it without losing your progress
You'll walk away understanding that backing off isn't losing momentum. It's protecting it. 💚
