from Mondays with Matt

They provide dopamine hits that encourage continued work toward building habits that move lifters toward their goals. Early on, PRs tend to be easy – easy to track, celebrate, and establish.

Over time, establishing PRs becomes more difficult, as the PRs are not so clear. Ensure PRs Connect to Your Clients' Goals PRs measure progress toward your clients' goals.

PRs measure progress toward your clients' goals, so you should know your clients' PRs that matter and help assess movement toward their goals.
