What the video covers
How do you start getting stronger? 5×5 two sessions of 3 main lifts, 3 days a week. 2-3 days are enough: at equal volume, frequency does not change the result (Grgic et al., 2018). 3-8 reps on the main lifts, 2-3 minutes of rest (Lopez et al., 2021). A little more weight every session. The video ends by showing how to create the routine in Progrevia.
