Jiunta dives deep into one of the most overlooked aspects of performance training: modulating intensity. From injury recovery to high-level competitors in fat loss phases, Jiunta unpacks real conversations he's had this week about training smarter—not just harder. Learn how pushing for progress can actually set you back, why effort needs to be refined (not just ramped up), and how to communicate the nuance of RPE with clients and athletes alike. Whether you're chasing strength, hypertrophy, or longevity, this is a mindset shift you need to hear.
