Information Adherence is everything in the gym

If you are not consistent with your training you won’t be able to max your gains. You need to make a program (a good one for you), be consistent - dont change exercises and exercise order.

You are a ****** if you’re not showing up to the gym, training hard and eating healthy

Well said brah I have my own program for Upper and Lower and i have been stuck to it for almost a year and it served me hella well. I used to do PPL before this and stuck to it too but didnt really see any fast results.

I've been gymming for almost 4 years now and yeah you need to find a program that is good for YOU. Something enjoyable and fitting for your lifestyle and just stick to it

dont change exercises and exercise order.

Lmao why not

If you see that your progress on a specific exercise is starting to decrease, you can switch to a different one

For example, if I'm doing incline smith bench press and I'm stuck, I can switch it to incline dumbbell

After a bit, you can come back, and you'll see that you can lift more than last time

If you start to see a decrease in your progress on an exercise, it’s probably because you are already adapted to it almost completely.

If you change to another exercise, that “progress” you made in that 1-2 months period is almost purely neural adaptions (coordination improvement) so you just become better at the movement you don’t become stronger at it, thus your muscles don’t struggle more so you are not experiencing any mechanical tension until you are neurally adapted to that exercise, that’s why you don’t change exercises too frequently

So in short, when you change your exercise very frequently you limit yourself from reaching the high threshold motor units because your body didn’t adapt to that exercise yet

It will hinder yourself progress in the long term

For example, if I'm doing incline smith bench press and I'm stuck, I can switch it to incline dumbbell

dont worry lol, that “progress” that stalled is just you adapting to that exercise. When you change to another exercise you “progress” much faster because your body try to develop more coordination towards that exercise (neural adaptions) so you just become better at the moment not stronger

I would only change exercises if it becomes so boring that you feel unmotivated to do it
