Adapt your training as your fitness level improves from "summary" of Beyond Bigger Leaner Stronger by Michael Patrick Matthews
As you progress in your fitness journey, you will inevitably reach a point where your current training regimen no longer provides the same level of challenge or results. This is a natural part of the process and should be viewed as an opportunity for growth rather than a setback. Your body is constantly adapting to the stress you place on it, so it's important to adjust your training accordingly to continue making progress.
One way to adapt your training as your fitness level improves is by increasing the intensity of your workouts. This can be done by adding more weight, increasing the number of repetitions, or shortening rest periods between sets. By pushing yourself harder, you force your muscles to work harder, which in turn leads to greater strength and muscle gains.
Another way to adapt your training is by changing up your routine. Your body can quickly adapt to the same exercises if done repeatedly, leading to a plateau in progress. By incorporating new exercises or variations into your routine, you can target different muscle groups and keep your body constantly challenged.
It's also important to listen to your body and make adjustments based on how you feel. If you are constantly feeling fatigued or sore, it may be a sign that you need to dial back the intensity or incorporate more rest days into your routine. On the other hand, if you are not feeling challenged enough, it may be time to increase the intensity of your workouts.
By adapting your training as your fitness level improves, you can continue to see progress and avoid hitting a plateau. Remember that fitness is a journey, and it's important to stay flexible and willing to make changes as needed to keep moving forward.
