Andy and Dan continue their discussion of the most common reasons athletes get stuck in their training, including nutritional extremes (the chronically underfed and overfed trainee), constant program hopping, and never switching up your training approach. Andy argues that incorporating variety in your programming over time, especially in volume and intensity, is the key to unlocking gains after years of training.
