Episode 19: Exercise Progression

**Exercise is Progressive – something always has been progressing: repetitions, sets, or weight.
**Learn about Exercise Progression with sets, repetitions, and intensity!
**We can provide weekly workouts to YOUR inbox!

  • (2:50): The weight you are lifting can increase. The repetitions in each set can increase. The number of sets can increase.
  • (5:20): If you do the same exercises every single day without any changes, you are Working and not Exercising.
  • (7:15): If you are not progressing, your metabolism will slow down and muscle mass will decrease as we age.
  • (10:30): When you are exercising – there is good pain and bad pain. Muscle burning with lactic acid build-up is good.
  • (11:15): Good pain generally stops intensifying as soon as you stop the exercise. It should be resolved in 1-2 minutes. Non-productive pain can linger.
  • (12:20): DOMS – Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. This is a good pain where the muscles are breaking down, lactic acid building up, and muscle fibers regenerating. As you start to move, i.e. getting out of the chair and taking a few steps, this improves.
  • (14:15): You don’t get old and then stiff – you get stiff and then old. If you don’t move regularly, you won’t keep it… you will get stiff.
  • (16:15): Sit to Stand Exercise – Week 1: 3 sets of 10 reps, Week 2: 4 sets of 10 reps, Week 3: 4 sets of 15. Week 4: Eccentric sit to stand for 3 sets of 10 (slow sitting, quick standing) OR holding a 5-pound weight while you sit to stand.
  • (22:00): We can send you weekly workouts! Email jenni@bermanwellness.com to learn more!

Dr. Jake Berman

Dr. Jake Berman

After graduating from the University of Florida, Dr. Jake Berman, PT, DPT sought out mentorship first from Bob Seton in Destin, FL and then from Aaron Robles in Jacksonville, FL. Both of these mentors have 20+ years of experience helping people keep active and mobile so they can enjoy high quality active lifestyles. What Jake found was that back pain was by far the most debilitating pain and the highest factor leading to decreased physical activity later in life. These experiences are what inspired Jake to specialize in helping people aged 50+ keep active, mobile and pain free despite the aging process. There is nothing more rewarding than being able to alleviate somebody’s back pain so that they can get back to living their best life- especially in Naples! Over the years of helping 100’s of people aged 65-75 become stronger and pain free, one thing for sure has become apparent: “he who rests rots”. Jake is a firm believer that we become stiff then old, not old then stiff. Seriously, think about it...
