How to Break a Plateau

Have you hit a “plateau?” Solution: change up your program.

Changes in the body are preceded by changes in your routine. This means changing what you do, how long you do it for, and how hard you try when you are doing it.

If you have been exercising consistently for more than 4 months then you need to incorporate easy days (stage I), moderate days (stage II), and high intensity workout days (stage III) weekly in order to keep changing.

The following is an incomplete list of different classes you can try right here at club sport to change your program.

Stage I classes:
Aqua Aerobics
Yoga

Stage II classes:
Group Power
Sports Conditioning
Spin
Zumba

Stage III classes:
Boot camp
Group Kick

Remember that how hard you push yourself can make a Stage I class a stage III and a stage III class a stage I. Just like anything, pushing yourself can be tough… particularly when it seems like everyone and everything are pushing you from all directions. Remember that exercise is about you. Stage III intensity is a chance for you to take control of yourself. When you do it will mean a greater sense of accomplishment and more fitness results in the long run!
