Summary
Why does LP end? Is the lifter not recovering from the stress (too much fatigue) or is the lifter not delivering enough stress to disrupt homeostasis and recover? It turns out, it's a little bit of both (though it differs for the different lifts) so we adjust training accordingly to continue progress.
During LP, the stress recovery adaptation cycle is clean--the workout is the stress, the lifter recovers in 48-72 hours, and the lifter adapts and is ready to lift more the next time. To continue to progress, the lifter will have to deliver more stress (e.g. 4x5, not 3x5) but the lifter cannot recover from this within 48 hours, so a lighter Wednesday is added to deliver a small amount of stress and allow fatigue to dissipate for Friday's intensity slot. To move, however, from three times weekly progress to weekly progress, make small adjustments as opposed to jumping from one program to another.
Small adjustments allow you to better know what is working and as opposed to changing every possible variable or many, you change one or a couple to continue progress.

| 0:00.0 | Hey listeners, this is normally when we would talk about a holiday sale or how |
| 0:07.4 | now is the right time to start with online coaching because of how much money |
| 0:10.5 | you can save. However, as I met with our marketing team earlier this month to |
| 0:14.8 | discuss promotional ideas, we found ourselves focusing on the ideal outcomes |
| 0:19.3 | for people who want to work with a coach. And that called to mind how many of |
| 0:23.1 | our clients got into this for the form corrections and ended up making real |
| 0:27.8 | life transformations through strength training. We realized that the ideal |
| 0:31.9 | barbell logic client is not afraid of hard work. They don't just have goals, they |
| 0:36.5 | are driven by continual self-improvement. They pursue strength because they |
| 0:40.7 | care deeply about the people who they love who depend on them. We know that |
| 0:45.6 | price is always a consideration when it comes to deciding to sign up for |
| 0:48.9 | something. But our successful clients tell us that in addition to carefully |
| 0:53.0 | deciding where to invest their money, they're also very intentional about how they |
| 0:57.3 | invest their time. And when you care about your time that much, there is fear |
| 1:01.6 | that you could waste your time and not see the results you want. If any of this |
| 1:05.6 | sounds like you, I'm here to make you a promise. You give us six months of two to |
| 1:10.6 | four workouts a week and if you don't see changes in your strength or form, we |
| 1:14.8 | will give you all of your money back. That's all six months. The worst case |
| 1:19.3 | scenario is it ends up costing you nothing. The best case scenario is you invest |
| 1:24.1 | in yourself and you get exactly what you want out of your training. The only |
| 1:28.0 | risk is about on yourself. It's time to place that bet and put your money where |
| 1:32.4 | your goals are. Get matched with your coach now at www.barbelllogic.com slash |
