DM “CHALLENGE” To @ ColossusFit To join our summer shred challenge 🔥

Summary of episode: In today's episode I am going to show you how to break through plateaus and see the progress you've always dreamed of. 

Listed points:

1. Your aren’t training hard enough - new meta-analysis on lifters self-selecting loads for their training. The conclusion shows that most lifters tend to be very conservative in their weight selections, which leads to sets with several reps in the tank. This suggest that for strength and hypertrophy purposes, the way most people train is leaving a lot of gains on the table:
2. Your program sucks / switching movements too much, no progression, no volume contorl/ too many useless movements/ horible splits
3. Neglecting quality sleep
4. Hydration. Being chronically dehydrated is also bad for performance and general health. Make sure you’re drinking enough liquids throughout the day.
5. Poor nutrition - either A) Not eating enough protein, hitting macros or just eating garbage / binging with foods that break you down instead of building you up
6. Stress. Chronically high stress levels can have numerous negative health effects, including affecting your performance in the gym and general energy levels. Try to reduce stress if at all possible.
7. Not pushing yourself to your full potential - always be growing, build on your goals etc.
8. You’re not consistent
