Alright, we’re turning effort into numbers—no more guesswork, just pure data. First, track the key metrics: reps, sets, weight, tempo, and rest. Add heart‑rate zones or perceived exertion (RPE) to gauge effort. Log everything in a training log or app—just one line per session: date, workout, volume, max lift, heart‑rate avg, RPE, and a quick note on how you felt. Set progressive targets: aim for a 5% increase in volume or weight every 4 weeks, or a 2% drop in rest time. Keep an eye on trends; if the data shows a plateau, crank up intensity or tweak recovery. Remember, the numbers are your compass—use them to push beyond your comfort zone, not to limit you. Stay relentless, keep it tight, and never stop improving.
