In this episode of The One Life PT Podcast, Tim Caputo breaks down the key elements of strength training to make it simple and effective. Learn how to focus on the basics to get stronger, including increasing weight, reps, and progressive overload's importance. Tim also discusses the role of rest and recovery in building strength and highlights the "Big 4" movements—squat, hinge, push, and pull—that form the foundation of any great strength training program. Whether new to lifting or looking to simplify your routine, this episode will guide you through the essentials for boosting your strength.

1. Progressive Overload: Consistently increasing weight or reps is essential for getting stronger. This gradual increase keeps your muscles challenged and ensures ongoing progress.
2. Rest and Recovery: Strength gains happen during recovery, not just in the gym. Give your body the time it needs to repair and grow stronger.
3. The Big 4 Movements: Squat, hinge, push, and pull movements form the cornerstone of any effective strength program. These compound exercises target multiple muscle groups for efficient strength building.
4. Focus on Compound Movements: Exercises like deadlifts, squats, bench presses, and rows are key to building overall strength. They engage more muscles at once, giving you the best return on your effort.
