WHAT DOES "STRONG" ACTUALLY MEAN?
When we think about strength training, itβs easy to think strength is simply about lifting heavier weights.
And yes, getting stronger can absolutely mean adding more weight to the bar or picking up a heavier dumbbell.
But strength is about much more than that.
It can be holding a position for longer, controlling a movement, carrying a load, improving your technique, doing more reps with the same weight, or simply being able to do something today that you couldnβt do a few months ago.
Sometimes the goal isnβt to lift heavier.
Sometimes itβs to move better, control your body, maintain good technique and build the capacity to keep going.
Thatβs why comparing your strength to someone else doesnβt really make sense.
Your progress might be an extra 5kg.
Someone elseβs might be an extra 10 seconds.
Another personβs might be their first proper push-up.
It all counts.
Strength isnβt just about what you can lift.
Itβs about what your body can do.
