Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWe discuss a blunt question: what happened to work capacity? We define it, the ability to do more quality work, repeat it, and recover, then explore why it’s slipping (lifestyle stress, poor loading, “failure-only” low-volume trends, and a neglected aerobic base).What we cover👉 Short- vs long-term work capacity and how to spot session drop-off👉 Recovery pillars: sleep, nutrition, stress, and micronutrients👉 Programming levers: step/constant loading, smart rest, mesocycle loading (ascending/peaking/descending)👉When to use phase, weekly, or daily-undulating models to balance volume and intensity👉Why you don’t chase PRs in high-volume phases, and what to do instead👉 Starting low, progressing volume, and avoiding junk repsActionable, jargon-light guidance to help you bring work capacity back, so training gets harder, recovery gets better, and progress lasts.Stay Connected with KILO: Have Questions?
