Four Things You're Doing To Stay Fat
1) Lack of Program Design
Can you really say that you're following a properly planned program? What I mean is, do you perform full body session for 2 weeks then decide you want to really improve that deadlift so you go and train like a powerlifter? Do you know where you plan to be with your training in 12 weeks? 16 weeks? Don't follow programs out of the magazines, set goals then follow them
2) Too Much Aerobic Training
Are you still doing your steady state or long duration cardio? If you answered yes I bet you will also answer yes to the following questions. "Are you struggling to lose fat despite your efforts"? "Do you notice rapid muscle loss"? Long duration aerobic activity has directly been linked to higher cortisol levels, which lead to fat gain and muscle loss. Cut it out.
3) No Prehab Work
You have a nagging injury, a pain that keeps limiting your training. It's pretty common that people don't perform prehab work and just assume it'll go away. Performing prehab work at the beginning or end of each session will add structural balance to our body and allow us. This will ensure long-term progress and growth and just make you feel better. Take the Chicken Little "The sky is falling" approach and do your prehab after every session.
4) You're still performing body part training
It still confuses me why everyone and their mother (literally) are copying bodybuilder body part training. I know, they do it to get big muscles so I should do it too. Well can you rest and use the drugs they use? How often are you hitting each muscle per seven-day cycle? Frequency is the real deal people and the key for growth; it's here to stay.
5) You're doing the same all routines
Do what you've always done, get what you've always gotten" It's the quote in front of Ronnie Coleman's treadmill and it needs to be in every gym in the country. It could be cardio, weights, pilates, stretching, yoga, spinning, whatever you want to do but if you continue to do the same thing you're going to screw yourself. Even if your consistently switching exercises, sets, reps, intensity you need to be even more creative. Everything should be in your toolbox, kettlebells, powerlifting, olmypic lifting, bodybuilding methods; it's your entire playground.
