How fast should you increase your weights? The answer depends on where you are in your lifting journey.

Whether you're just starting out, building intensity, or lifting heavy, your progress will look different at each stage. 

In this episode, I break down the three phases of strength training, what to expect as you move through them, and how to know when it's time to go heavier. 

Plus, I share key tips to make steady, sustainable progress.
