Gym me progress ka core concept hai progressive overload – time ke saath body ko thoda-thoda extra challenge dena, taaki wo adapt karke stronger ban sake. Sirf same weight, same reps, same routine months tak karne se strength aur muscle gains jaldi stall ho sakte hain.
Overload sirf weight increase se nahi hota. Tum reps badha sakte ho (10 se 12), sets add kar sakte ho (3 se 4), rest interval slightly kam kar sakte ho, ya technique better kar sakte ho (full range, better control). Ye sab body ke liye “naya challenge” count hote hain.
Safe route ye hai ki jab tum kisi weight pe comfortably recommended reps/sets complete kar sakte ho, aur form stable lagti hai, tab chhota jump try karo. For example, 5 kg dumbbell se 12 reps easy ho gaye, to next session 6 kg se 8–10 reps try karo.
Agar naya weight pe form break ho rahi ho, swing, jerk, ya pain aa raha ho, to ego side me rakh ke previous level pe do weeks aur kaam karo. Joints lifetime ke liye hain; ek heavy rep ke liye unhe sacrifice karna faida ka deal nahi.
Progress track karna—journal, app, ya simple notes—help karta hai ye dekhne me ke months me kitna improvement hua. Ye visual proof motivation ka fuel ban jata hai.
