Increasing intensity of workouts

Do you guys sometimes do the same workouts everytime? the same distance, the same length, the same amount of rest time and seeing no results? If this is you, it means that you need to increase your intensity.

As you keep working at the same intensity, your body adapts to the certain intensity and the workout keeps getting easier and easier, this is why you have to keep increasing the intensity of your workouts

e.g.
Strength training
increasing weight

Cardio training
Increasing intensity e.g. running instead of jogging, basically exercises that will allow your to have a faster heart rate

Muscle endurance training
increasing weight (not alot)
increase repetitions


ill leave you guys a quote from the famous Bruce Lee :)
"If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. it will spread into your work and into your life. there are no limits. there are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you  must go beyond them"- Bruce Lee
