They let you know you're on the right track (or they indicate a change is needed).</p> <p>You first must develop goals based on your deep motivations and values. Then, decide on metrics that align with this goal. If these metrics increase - if you hit PRs - you are moving closer toward your goals.</p> <p>Over time, you'll need to reassess your goals and PRs. You may get injured or reach a point where all-time, outright PRs are behind you (no more 1RMs). This is okay.</p> <p>What you'll have to do is create new PRs to track. Maybe you track PRs after 40. You could track PRs at your lighter weight. Tracking volume PRs, consistency PRs, PRs at different rep & set schemes, or PRs for accessory or supplemental lifts could help you assess progress toward your goals.</p> <p>Ultimately, PRs motivate clients and measure progress toward goals, indicating if you and your client are on the right path, or you need to change something.</p> <div> <h3>Automated Metrics Are Awesome - <a href= "https://youtu.be/3FF9Ghl54pY?si=WqAAxZBjn_fLJsV3">Efficient & Effective</a></h3> </div> <div> <p>Don't go out of your way to remember client PRs - track them automatic
