Happy New Year!

Since this is the first day of the new year I figured I would share one more article from 2018 today when I went into the archives. The original publishing date of today’s article was back on July 3, 2018.

Whether you like it or not today is the day that many people start setting New Year’s Resolutions. Whether you do that or not I figured that today’s article may help to guide you. I figured this would be the case even if you decided it’s time for you to “tweak” your training looking at the new year. Read and apply!

Are you continuing to win your war on strength beyond your 30’s?
Do you currently try to lift and train the same now as you did in your 20’s?
Are you battling with ailments and injury more often?
Are you still trying to blast out record PR’s every 6 to 8 weeks in your 30’s?

If you’re looking to keep crushing your strength gains for the long haul then you’ve got to change up your strength and conditioning approach as you ease into your 30’s, 40’s, and beyond. Sure you can still blast some new PR’s and blow up the heavy weight, but I would strongly recommend going about doing it intelligently and with an eye for experience.

Are you failing to get the strength gains you want with your workouts?
Do you feel like you’ve hit a plateau in your strength training?
Is your strength training program getting you the gains you desire the most?
Are you training 5 or 6 days a week, but still not seeing the results you think you should be seeing?

If you’re experiencing problems in making strength gains with your training then you need to evaluate what you’re doing, as well as what you might not be doing. I get it. I’ve been where you are before, but I don’t struggle with making strength gains anymore. Don’t misunderstand me I put the work in, but what I mean is that the work I put in is effective and it gets the job done now, but that’s only because of years of experience and study. With that being said I wanted to outline some things here that are probably holding you back from you being able to make your strength gains.

Everybody appreciates a good villain when they sit down to read a story or to watch a kick ass action movie. The stout looking Gent pictured above is Goldfinger’s famous henchman Odd Job from the original 007 movie. I know it’s old school, but this guy was a handful. He was quite the killer and today that’s why I’m going to be talking about some other killers that you may not be aware of. These killers are damaging your progress in the weight room and if you have your own “Odd Job” to fight then you better read up so that you will know how to win, otherwise you’re going to get beaten up pretty bad.
