Add Reps
Easiest Method
When you can do 12 reps comfortably, aim for 13–14 next week. When you hit the top of the rep range, progress to a harder variation.
🎯 Gradual strength gains
Progressive Overload
2
Slow the Rep
Most Underrated
3 seconds down, 1 second up. More time under tension = more muscle. Same exercise, double the results.
🎯 Massive muscle growth
3
Reduce Rest
For Fat Burn
Week 1: 60s rest. Week 4: 45s. Week 8: 30s. Less rest = more calorie burn + cardiovascular challenge.
🎯 Maximum fat loss
