Overcoming Workout Plateaus: Advanced Training Tips
Hitting a workout plateau can be frustrating, but it's also a sign that your body has adapted to your current fitness routine. This is the perfect opportunity to mix things up and push your limits. Here are some advanced training tips to help you break through those plateaus and continue progressing toward your fitness goals.
1. Try New Classes
One of the best ways to overcome a plateau is by adding variety to your workout routine. If you've been doing the same exercises week after week, your body may have become too accustomed to them. Echelon offers a diverse range of classes to keep things fresh and challenging. From high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to restorative yoga, there's something for everyone.
Echelon Recommendation: Explore our HIIT classes for an intense calorie-burning session or unwind with our yoga classes to enhance flexibility and reduce stress. Switching up your routine can reignite your motivation and stimulate new muscle growth.
2. Adjust Intensity
Sometimes, all you need to break through a plateau is to change the intensity of your workouts. This could mean increasing the weight you're lifting, adding more repetitions, or simply picking up the pace.
Echelon Recommendation: With Echelon's connected fitness equipment, you can easily adjust the resistance or incline to make your workouts more challenging. Our smart technology tracks your progress and helps you set new goals, ensuring you continuously improve.
3. Incorporate Different Types of Exercise
Incorporating different types of exercise can also help you break through a plateau. If you're a runner, try adding strength training to your routine. If you primarily lift weights, consider incorporating some cardio.
Echelon Recommendation: Echelon's extensive library of on-demand classes includes cycling, rowing, strength training, boxing, and more. This variety ensures you can always find a new way to challenge your body and mind.
4. Focus on Recovery
Recovery is a crucial part of any fitness routine, especially when you're trying to overcome a plateau. Make sure you're giving your body enough time to rest and repair between workouts. This might mean incorporating more rest days or focusing on active recovery techniques like stretching or foam rolling.
Echelon Recommendation: Our recovery and stretching classes are designed to help you maximize your rest days and come back stronger. Join our live classes or access them on-demand whenever you need a break.
