PUSH YOUR LIMITS

Remix your gym regimen to break any strength plateau

JOIN THE BAND

Heavy metal provides a constant amount of resistance. So try bands: the difficulty varies as you move, giving your muscles a different stimulus.

STAY DYNAMIC

Warming up with static stretches leads to losses in strength, according to Brazilian scientists*. Swap out isometric holds for brief bodyweight drills.

KEEP THE BEET

Forego whey in favour of fresh juice. Filling up on nitrate-rich beetroot pre-training helped gym-goers push out 20% more bench press reps†.
