Legend says ancient Greek wrestler Milo of Croton built his heroic strength by lifting a baby calf and walking with it every day. As the calf grew into a full-grown bull, so did Milo's strength. This story, 2,500 years old, established the training principle still used today: progressive overload—slowly increasing load to drive adaptation, strength, and muscle growth.
