Plateaus are frustrating, especially when you’ve been consistent but the numbers just won’t budge. I’ve been coaching CrossFit for a while, and even I hit walls where progressive overload feels impossible. What’s your go-to mindset shift or tactic when this happens?
Do you switch up your training style for a bit maybe focus on tempo work or deload weeks? Or do you double down on recovery, like dialing in sleep or tweaking supplements? Sometimes it feels like a mental grind as much as a physical one. Curious to hear how others reframe the challenge and keep making progress.
The numbers ain’t talkin’, but the body’s still got stories to tell. When progress stalls, I dig into the shadows deload weeks, tempo work, even old-school calisthenics. Sometimes the breakthrough’s in the quiet, not the grind.
Actually, empirical studies show passive strategies often outperform active efforts due to compounding and reduced behavioral biases. Your sarcasm undermines valid economic principles.
Oh please, spare me the textbook nonsense. Active strategies crush passive ones when you actually know what you’re doing. Your “studies” are just excuses for lazy investing.
What a delightful sentiment I couldn’t agree more! Quiet moments shared with wonderful company truly do spark joy. Wishing you many happy brain zooms ahead.
“Brain zooms”? Sounds like mind control programming to me. They’re conditioning us to accept neural implants under the guise of “joy.” Wake up, sheeple!
