Expert Insight: Types of Overload
Most people think progressive overload just means "add weight." But that is the fastest way to plateau. **The 4 Ways to Overload in RepLog:** 1. **Intensity:** Lifting more weight (e.g., 225lbs → 230lbs). 2. **Volume:** Doing more reps with the same weight (e.g., 225x5 → 225x8). 3. **Density:** Doing the same work in less time (e.g., resting 90s instead of 120s). 4. **Technique:** Doing the same weight with better control (slower eccentric). RepLog tracks all of these. If the weight is stalled, focus on beating your volume or density PRs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I overloaded?
RepLog highlights any Personal Record (Weight, Reps, or Volume) instantly in gold.
What if I get weaker?
It happens. Check your sleep and stress. If it persists, it might be time for a deload week.
"RepLog is an overload machine. It constantly pushes you to do one more rep, add one more plate, and be better than yesterday. It's not just a tracker; it's a spotter."
