ExercisePlateau

Have you hit an exercise plateau? If you train long enough doing the same routine day after day week after week you will hit a plateau. Where do you go from there?? A few things to try...

*Take a break, Do something totally different for week or two and the go back to your "Normal" exercise routine

*Fuel you body, As as body adapts to your new fitness level your metabolism increases. Evalute how much food your body really needs.

*Mix up your routine, if you are not continually shocking your body with new exercises your body will know what is coming next, shock your body. Don't let your ody know what is coming next.

*Change the intesity of your workouts daily, push your self harder certian days of the week, remember to take a rest day too.

*Sleep, if your are not getting enough rest your body doesn't have time to repair your muscles from your workouts.

Happy Exercising!!!
