The fundamental principles behind every effective training program.

Concept	What It Covers
Progressive Overload	How to systematically increase training stress
Periodization	Planning training phases for long-term progress
SRA Curve	Stimulus-Recovery-Adaptation — when to train again
Volume Landmarks	MEV, MAV, MRV — how much training is enough vs. too much
RPE & RIR	Rating effort: Reps in Reserve and Rate of Perceived Exertion
Rep Continuum	Low reps for strength, high reps for endurance — and what's in between
Specificity (SAID)	You get better at what you train
Deload	Strategic recovery weeks to prevent overtraining
