Episode notes
Optimal Rest Periods for Strength Training
- Rest 3 to 5 minutes between low rep (2-5) heavy weight sets for full muscle recovery.
- Rest 1 to 2 minutes between higher rep sets for hypertrophy to maintain good form and strength.
Uphill Walking for Fat Loss
- Do 20 to 30 minutes of uphill treadmill walking post-lifting for effective fat burn and muscle retention.
- Uphill walking is low-impact cardio that promotes fat loss without risking injury or muscle loss.
Progressive Overload Strategies
- Aim to progressively overload strength training by adding weight, reps, or slowing tempo each week.
- If adding weight plateaus, increase reps, then add time under tension with slower controlled movements.
