Avoiding Overload Mistakes in Powerlifting

– Not all high reps are bad, but focus on intensity for powerlifting.

– Don't cut corners! Overload requires consistent effort.

– Prioritize compound movements with barbells and dumbbells for assistance.

– Skip the gimmicks - they don't create sufficient overload for powerlifting.

– Track your best efforts - crucial for planning future overload.

– Be flexible - adjust for injuries or unexpected fatigue.

Train smart, not just hard. Avoid these mistakes to maximize overload.
