If you’ve been trying to transform your body but haven’t seen results yet, this one is for YOU.

So often, the reason why the body is not changing is that the training’s intensity is not appropriate.⁠

If the intensity is too high, the risk of injury increases, and the progress slow down or stop because the recovery is insufficient.⁠⁠

If the intensity is too low, your body doesn’t adapt, and you just waste time and effort in the gym.⁠

Because 99% of the womenundershoot the weight they use for their training, I’ll only focus on how to know if the intensity is too low today.⁠⁠

Here are the 7 signs that indicate your training intensity is not on point AKA will not drive results.

1. You are using the same weight, sets, and reps scheme week after week after week.
2. Your training plan says 4×6 and you use a weight you can do 15 reps with.
3. You stop your set because it ‘burns’, but you still can move at the same speed, and could do another 5 reps before the weight stops moving.
4. You’ve never experienced what it means to train to failure.
5. You prefer yoga, Zumba, spinning, and the treadmill to strength training. Nothing wrong with those, but they are all very low-intensity activities and will not help you to build your body + create shape.
6. You’ve been training for more than one year and you can’t deadlift more than your bodyweight.
7. You don’t track your progress and don’t know how much you can squat, deadlift, or how many push-ups and pull-ups you can do. Knowing your numbers doesn’t guarantee that you train with the right intensity, but not knowing them is almost a guarantee that the intensity is too low.

If one or more of those scenarios is true for you, then you are not training at the right intensity.⁠⁠
