Keep it guessing. Muscle Confusion

One of the biggest mistakes people make when trying to get into shape is not changing up there workout enough. Have you ever noticed that the first time you do a workout your body gets really sore. But after you have been doing the workout for a wile, you become less sore after. This is because the human body is great at adapting. The problem with this is that as your body adapts to your new workout, it renders that workout less effective. In order to prevent your body from getting to a workout, you have to keep switching things up to insure that you keep getting results for your workout.


The concept of changing up your workouts all the time is called “Muscle Confusion”. Its extremely important when trying to reach your fitness goals!!!  

Here are some things that you can change in your workout to keep your body guessing

• Change The Speed of your reps
• Change up all exercises for each body part
• Change the amount of time that you Rest Between Sets
• Change the the amount of sets you do per exercise
• Change weight. use light weights one month, them heavy weights the next month
• Try using all Body Weight exercises instead of weights for a month (or vice versa)

Those are just a few ideas, but the possibility are endless! If you have any “Muscle Confusion” methods that work well for you, please share them in the comment section!

(p.s. there is one thing that I NEVER change… I ALWAYS GO TO FAILURE WITH EACH SET!!!!)
