Don't get stuck
 

Don’t get stuck in a rut with the same exercises and weights. Expect that after 4-6 weeks, your body will have adjusted and will be starving for something new. Aim to make incremental increases to your weight loads, try new exercises, shorten rest periods, incorporate advanced techniques like supersets, change from barbells to dumbbells—anything to keep your body guessing and improving. Lifting weights is one area where adaptation is not a desirable result.
