#107: How to Warm Up to Lift Heavy Weights

So, you've been lifting for a while, applying progressive overload, and you're at the point where the weights are getting heavy. Of course, heavy is always relative (what's heavy for you is not the same as what's heavy for someone else). But you know what I mean: when you get to the point where the idea of just grabbing your working weights and going for it feels like not such a good idea. If some Personal Trainer or fitness influencer told you that 15 minutes of cardio is the best way to warm up, I disagree. In this episode of the podcast, I share the best way to warm up to lift heavy - including some concrete examples of how to warm up for heavy sets. Use this method to get the most out of your training sessions and minimize the risk of injury.
