Reaching a Plateau..

We have all been at the point where we feel we've reached a plateau. A good sign is if you've been training and eating in a manner that was working but doesn't seem to be working anymore. A lot of times our lack of result is from our lack of commitment level. Or thinking we are eating really good but tend to forget the numerous times we cheat throughout the day. Speaking from personal experience you can workout 7 days a week but if you have a poor diet you will show little results. So it's a combination of both.

Bump up your routine push yourself during a workout! Take fewer rests keep your workout going. If your working out at a gym and your lifting weights do supersets. A superset is performing two exercises in rapid succession with minimal rest. Formulate a circuit type training program for yourself where you perform a series of exercises, one after the other with minimal rest. As you begin to build more muscle, your body will become more metabolically active. Having more muscle simply means you'll also be burning more calories even when your less active or sleeping.
