No longer making gains from your regular workout? This technique could be the answer – here’s how to incorporate it into your routine to progress and get stronger.
If you feel like your progress in the gym has stalled and you’re not getting any stronger, don’t worry, you’re not alone. As frustrating as they are, fitness plateaus are common, particularly if you’ve been training for a long time.
When you reach that point of plateau, you need to increase the intensity of your workouts to get your gains back on track. This might mean upping the weights or the reps. But if you feel like you can’t squeeze out an extra rep or lift any heavier, focusing on time under tension (TUT) in your training could help kickstart your progress.
