Overcomming Plateaus
Hey guys,
Just wondering, if any you folks have some advice on overcomming a plateau. I think at one time, we all reach our limits, and then it gets harder to surpass a certain mark. For example, on the Bench Press I've been stuck at the same maximum weight for almost a year at 4 to 5 reps. Is there any any way to overcome it?

Do you do pretty much the same thing every week?
Your body becomes accustomed to exercises after a while, so it is important to switch up what you are doing. Try free weights working the same muscles or cables...that really does help. A little more information about your issues would be helpful for us to give you advice. : )
