I am a 25-year-old retired college hockey player who used to have a sports-specific workout throughout my youth and early 20s. It has been 3 years, going on 4, since I graduated from college, and I have hit a gym plateau. I have been using the gym to manage my anxious, high-energy feelings but have lost a sense of what I am capable of. I feel burnt out and lack an understanding of how much my body should endure in the gym. I am curious about how to get my body back to where I am confident I can perform certain lifts without the long-term aches and pains that tend to follow today. How can I overcome this gym plateau and regain my confidence and performance?
I have a new question regarding my current weight loss journey. I was a personal trainer and group fitness coach for about six years. I would love any suggestions on how I can move forward with my fat loss journey. The weird part is I feel relatively stronger and more mobile than ever and just turned 40 in March, but I just don’t feel like my look and current body fat match my efforts. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
