Hi everyone,
First, some details: 34, male, 69kg, 170cm. Started training in October.
Mainly focused on pull/push day workouts and training every day, as follows:
Pull days: pull ups, chin ups, neutral grip pull ups and L sits on rings.
Push days: Ring dips, low diamond push ups, squats.
The last month or so has been amazing for me in terms of gains, I went from being able to do 3+2+1 pull ups to now doing 8 + 6 + 4. Ring dips from barely doing 2+1 to now doing 10+10+9. I was really pleased.
In the last week, however, these gains seem to have stopped. Where before I'd add at least 1 rep every other day, it now takes me at least double (sometimes triple!) the time to add that rep.
To give an example with the push ups, I started off doing 15 > 18 > 21 > 22 but am now "stuck" to 30 for the past week.
Any advice on how to overcome that?
Thanks!
