155. Why Your Workouts Aren't Working (And It's Probably Not What You Think)
Consistent effort in the gym doesn't always equal consistent results, and that gap is exactly what causes most training plateaus. In this episode, we break down the real reasons progress stalls even when you're showing up, and what to actually change to start seeing results again.
You'll learn:
The 70% rule for scaling training down to get better results, not worse Why intensity and proximity to failure matter more than volume alone How recovery, sleep, and nutrition directly affect your ability to progress Why program simplicity often beats constant program-hopping How to use exercise rotation and data tracking to break through a plateau The role of cardio and conditioning in supporting strength gains If your training feels stuck despite putting in the work, this episode gives you a clear framework for identifying what's actually holding your progress back, and what small, sustainable changes can get it moving again.
