The progressive overload principle is all about working your body harder than what you would normaly would so that you are putting enough stress on the body to make improvements but its about finding the right intensity so that you do not sustain any injuries.

The progressive overload principle is all about working your body harder than what you would normaly would so that you are putting enough stress on the body to make improvements but its about finding the right intensity so that you do not sustain any injuries.
If you are taliking about in a training programme, say you have a six week training programme... overload: making each training session subsequently harder by increasing intensity or duration progression: making the programme harder from the beginning to the end
How can the f.i.t.t principle be used to create overload in a training programme?"
Variation (Based on Educere Schooling Website)
This is called the Principle of Overload.
The principle of overload is to train your muscles beyond what they usually do in order to create micro-tears which will later be repaired by protein. This makes the muscle grow back bigger and stronger.

Overload in PE is the principle of training that states we must work our body systems harder than usual in order for them to be improved.
The Principle of Progression implies that there is an optimal level of overload that should be achieved, and an optimal time frame for this overload to occur. Overload should not be increased too slowly or improvement is unlikely. Overload that is increased too rapidly will result in injury or muscle damage. Exercising above the target zone is counterproductive and can be dangerous. For example, the weekend athlete who exercises vigorously only on weekends does not exercise often enough, and so violates the principle of progression.
