When to Progress Your Workout (Progressive Overload Explained)

How do you know when it’s time to progress your workout—and how do you do it safely?

If your workouts are starting to feel easier, that’s not a failure—it’s a sign your body is adapting. In this video, Jennifer Allen breaks down when and how to progress your workouts wisely, whether you’re strength training, doing cardio, or focusing on mobility.

You’ll learn:
- What progressive overload actually means
- Why your body adapts to what you repeatedly ask of it
- The SAID principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands) explained simply
- How to recognize when your body is ready for more—without rushing or burnout

This teaching is perfect if you:
✔ Feel stuck in your workouts
✔ Aren’t seeing results anymore
✔ Want to get stronger without injury
✔ Are new to strength training or returning after a break

At Revelation Wellness, we believe fitness is more than movement—it’s stewardship and learning to love your body as God designed it.
