Change The Stimulus, Change The Response

Has your weight loss stalled?

Have you stopped building lean muscle?

Perhaps those scales haven’t gone down in a while and you can’t see any changes in your physique, despite working hard and sticking to your diet.

I have 6 words for you…

“Change the Stimulus, Change the Response.”

By doing this, you’ll quickly and easily lose fat faster and build more lean muscle.

“If You Train the Same, You Remain the Same.”

The biggest issue I see with most people in the gym is that they always do the same things.

  • They ALWAYS do 30-60 minutes on the treadmill at the same speed.
  • They ALWAYS use the 10lb. dumbbells for their bicep curls.
  • They ALWAYS do sets of 20 mountain climbers at the same intensity.
  • They ALWAYS take 60 seconds rest between sets.

The trouble with this is that your body gets used to it, and by keeping that stimulus the same all the time, the response also stays the same. That “response” is the equivalent to changes in your body composition – i.e. fat loss, muscle gain or an increase in fitness.

Meaning that if you never manipulate the variables in your workout, you’ll never see the progress you are after. Check the video to learn more…

4 Sure-Fire Ways to SMASH Your Plateau 

So how do we go about changing the stimulus to elicit a bigger response?

Simple, there are 4 ways:

1. Sets and Reps

The number of sets and reps (TUT) always depends on your goal.

  • 0-20 sec = strength training
  • 20-40 sec = strength/hypertrophy training
  • 40-70 sec = hypertrophy/metabolic training

But that doesn’t mean you don’t adjust your training to include a mix of the above.

A bodybuilder who always does sets of 8 to 10, for instance, can see great gains by switching to a week of working with sets of 15 to 20.

If you’re chasing fat loss, why not throw some strength work into the mix to shock your body?

If you’re not sure what to do, just add an extra set (increase volume) to every exercise – that’s extra calorie burn right there.

2. Exercises

Experiment with different moves.

If your chest session always consists of bench presses, dips, pushups and fly’s, how about interchanging reg bench for incline bench or inserting dumbbell presses and cable cross-overs?

Or something as simple as changing your planks to side planks can also make difference.

3. Weights

Don’t be afraid to lift heavy.

I’ve seen some of the fastest fat loss in clients who train for strength. You just don’t know. The idea here to continue to manipulate the variables.

Even if you don’t want to drop your reps too low (slower reps), you should at least be trying to lift heavier progressively, by using a little more weight every few weeks.

4. Time In Between Sets 

Do you time how long you rest between sets?

If not, you should.

Getting lazy and resting too long (or just not trying to rest less over time) is one of the best ways to hinder your progress, so keep a timer on hand, and always see if there’s a way you can cut just 5 to 10 seconds from your time in-between sets.

Or better still, pair exercises into a superset to ramp up the calorie burn.

“But how do I do it?”

Now you know what to do, but you go to the gym and think…

“I’m still confused.

Do I add reps or take them away?

I did that exercise last time, am I supposed to do it again, or choose something different?

How do I know if it’s time to switch things up?”

The answer to any question you could have, is revealed >> here <<.
