In reality, they train smarter - because progress gets expensive This podcast is proudly sponsored by Harambe System - a variable resistance platform that’s become the foundation of my own training over the past two years. It bridges the gap between bands and weights, giving you smooth, consistent tension through a full range of motion - without the joint stress of traditional loading. If your goal is to build real strength while staying pain-free and training for the long game, it’s one of the best tools I’ve used. • Why progress slows (and why that’s normal) • The real game: tradeoffs • The misunderstood power of maintenance • How to choose goals without wasting months • Auto-regulation and “train by feel” • Training around injuries and constraints • Why plateaus aren’t random • The identity shift from chasing → sustaining At different stages of lifting: • Beginner: everything works • Intermediate: many things work • Advanced: very few things work At this level:
