Weight Lifting Plateaus

Breaking through weightlifting plateau

Plateaus are when you become "stuck" at lifting a certain weight for weeks and you can't seem to get past it.

Here are a few tips to get through a plateau.

Take a week or two off. Give your mind and body a chance to rest and recuperate.

Cycle your training, change your exercises and training techniques every month.

Work on your "weak link", for example your triceps could limiting your bench press.

Shock your muscles by using intensity booster techniques.

Try the stripping technique also called drop sets.

Use negative only training.

Do 10 sets of 10 using a lighter weight.

Have your training partner put on the weights and not tell you how much is on the bar, occasionally he should put on 20 to 30 more then your usual poundage.

It might be because of a mental block, in which case you should read the book Dianetics by L. Ron Hubbard.
