After spending enough time in the gym, you will quickly learn that you cannot keep doing your same workout routine for too long before you stop seeing results. The road to a stronger and leaner physique is more than just sweating a lot and lifting heavy weights. You need to challenge your muscles in different ways–different angles, different tempos, different workouts and overall just changing it up and keeping your muscles guessing all the time. You need to shock your muscles to grow, especially if you’ve been training with more standard methods or the same routine for a while.
