    Episode 113 - Why You Hold Stress In Your Upper Traps

    Episode 113 - Why You Hold Stress In Your Upper Traps

    “I hold stress in my upper traps” was one of my personality traits for a long time. While I’m not proud of that, it was my reality. What I failed to understand was that I wasn’t special- we all carry stress in our necks as a normal physiological response to threat- and that there are more things that can be done to feel better (beyond just ‘reducing stress’).

    I’ve been lifting semi-consistently for ~12 years, and I wish I would have learned these 3 things much earlier. When it comes to getting strong, the main ingredient needed to drive those adaptations is intensity (and of course you need to be adhering to a solid strength program). These are 3 things that helped me tap into greater intensities in my training, and are 3 things for you to consider if you’re looking to get strong.

    If you’ve been lifting for a while and wondering if you’re lifting heavy enough weights, this episode is for you.

This episode will cover why heavier loads are important from a functional standpoint, the 6 signs that you may benefit from heavier weights, and a few actionable ways to start lifting heavier.
