There are a number of reasons why you may experience plateauing, whether this is with your strength, your fat loss, or any other goal you may have.
Common reasons for this include:
1. Overtraining / no rest days 2. Under eating 3. Not lifting heavy enough 4. Using only one training technique 5. Over complicating exercises (know what works and is proven effective, even if it doesn’t seem a fancy exercise) 6. Not fuelling your body with the food it needs 7. No progressive overload (not increasing your training volume each week - either weight, reps, sets increase or rest time decrease) 8. Missing reps/sets 9. Not paying any attention to rest times between sets 10. Not planning/ not setting effective goals
