1. You’re not letting your body rest between workouts

"No rest, no gain". You’ve probably heard it before, but there is a truth to it. Working out, day after day without rest may cause your body not to recover properly. Naturally, your degree of fitness will influence the amount of time it takes you to recover. A good rule of thumb: Three days of training per week for beginners and up to five days for expert athletes. Make sure to schedule recovery time (rest days) in between your workout routines.

2. Change your workout routine

If you want to keep on seeing results, you must alter your workout routine over time. When you repeat the same workout regimen over and over again, without increasing the intensity, your body becomes accustomed to it and is less prone to change. Start challenging your muscles instead!

3. You’re too stressed out

It's not just about taking care of your body. Working out is a mindset too. You can be stressed out from work, relationships, or other worries. When you’re stressing out, your muscle-building hormones drop while muscle-damaging hormones rise. This is due to your fight or flight nervous system, also known as the sympathetic nervous system, and it’s heavily involved in the link between stress and muscle growth. This is because when you’re under stress, your body is secreting chemicals like cortisol and adrenaline, which break down fats and proteins into high-octane glucose. That’s why you must stress down and try to have a clear as possible mindset while working out. If you find that hard, try yoga or mindfulness – both have great stress-reducing effects.

4. You’re not eating and drinking after exercising

When you exercise, the glycogen storage (carbohydrate) in your muscles are drained, you get increased protein metabolism, and lose fluids, salts and the burning of adipose tissue. Or simplified: When you exercise, you have to regain what has been emptied. To do this, you need to consume food and drink that best fills up this storage. Some experts suggest that the best time to do this is right after, or at least within 30 min. after your workout has ended. This is because the body is most receptive to nutrients right after working out, especially when it comes to carbohydrates.
