Nearly EVERYONE of us goes through this situation from time to time where we feel like no matter what we do, we are barely able to see results. It can be so demotivating!
All that effort and hard work and yet we aren’t getting anywhere. The worst part is not knowing why this is happening.
The reality is you might be stuck in a plateau. Basically, a plateau is when your results stall out and you stop seeing the progress you saw when you first started your programme.
A Plateau is not a fun place to be – but the good news is that if you DO experience one (or are in one right now), there are a few key things to pay attention to… and the TOP ACTIONS you can take to 10X your results.
1. You Are “Kinda-Sorta” Following Your Program.
Have you started to slack on your plan? Be honest! This is one of the top causes of plateaus and it’s a good sign to shake things up with new recipes, workouts, or injecting some more FUN into the mix!
Keep a diary or come up with daily KPIs to hit and track your compliance.
2. Your Body is Used to Your Workouts/Plan.
This is another top cause of plateaus! The good news is this means you’re fitter/healthier. It also means it’s time to (safely) challenge your body in a different way.
Regular updates to your plan is going to be KEY to your success! A great coach can help you quickly identify small tweaks to fire up your results again and it really can take very small changes to make the difference.
3. Hormones, Stress, Sleep Deprivation, and More.
Your body isn’t a machine! It’s an incredibly complex organism that functions best when it’s in balance.
So many things can throw it out of balance, from being overtired to overstressed and even undernourished and overworked.
4. You’re Not REALLY In a Plateau. If you only rely on the scales to track your results, you’re missing out!
Your body could actually be changing in a big way EVEN if the scales aren’t moving. That’s why it’s important to measure other things – like the percentage of body fat or circumference measurements.
5. You’re Not REALLY In a Plateau.
If you’re struggling to lose those “last 5 pounds,” you might be at a weight that’s healthy and natural for your body.
Losing those pounds can take extra effort – as can keeping them off once you hit your goal.
We hope this list helps you rev up your results (especially!) if you’re stuck in a plateau..
The fastest and surest way to get – and keep – your momentum going is to work with an experienced coach with a tried & tested programme.
