I'm running BPC157 and taking organic multis everyday. And let me tell you... I am completely THRILLED with the results thus far! I know I still have a ways to go before I reach my goal, but I immediately noticed a change in my overall physique and level of strength. Again, thank you so much for the help! It's made a HUGE difference already!
Great job! That’s awesome to hear I’m glad I was able to help.

One thing I’d like to note and also try to encourage you on is this: progress is never linear. There will be times when we hit stagnant parts, it’s just part of the process. Do not get discouraged when this happens. Remember it’s a cyclic cycle so there will be times things seem to halt. That’s when you lock it down and remain disciplined.

But a way to help this be very minimal is to chase progressive overload and try to beat your last workout.

Let’s say you did 10 reps on a weight, then next time shoot for 12. And the next time try to get 14-15. Once you’ve reach 15 or so then increase the weight and try to hit 10. By always beating your last workout. Whether it’s 5, 10, 20lbs; you’re constantly pushing your body to new heights and new personal bests. And in doing so you’re telling your body it needs to adapt (grow more muscle and get stronger to lift the stresses put on it).

To bring this in full circle; remember that non linear process I mentioned. Well strength typically proceeds muscle gains which then plateaus a bit and you have to break through that barrier to hit a new strength high, which will then be followed up by more new muscle gains which then will plateau again and repeat.. see the theme?

Most people never reach their goals because they don’t train with the right focus, intensity and application. By applying these principles you will have very minimal plateaus and you’ll be not only getting stronger but you’ll be molding the body you want.
