Hi everyone,
i need some help from you guys. im 18 and have been training for about 5 weeks now, with a lot of HST in mind.
Problem is, i seemed to have hit a plateau with my muscle increases. I have been working mainly bi's, tri's, shoulders and back, and i thought i would measure my bicep circumfrence. Started at 32cm right and 30cm left. To my surprise i had 2cm growth in just over 2 weeks, then 1 cm in the next 2 weeks, now i dont seem to be growing at all. Im stuck at Right - 36cm, Left 35cm. Im certain this also applies to my shoulders and back as well.
(see attached graph)
I have looked at many plateau busters, but none seem to apply to me. Mainly because i dont have a strict routine, I just train every second day with a variety of workouts until im sore. And because this plateau has come within 5 weeks, not 5 months.
So should i rest for 10 days then hit it hard again? Or should I train extra hard?
Any help at all would be great.
Cheers
