Maybe you're muscles aren't becoming more defined or perhaps your weight is stuck on auto-pilot. The good news is there are plenty of things you can do to prevent a workout rut. Mix up your exercise regimen so that you have both cardio and strength training. Try different exercises.
Use different machines, even if it's as simple as making the change from the treadmill to the elliptical. If you're a runner who prefers the great outdoors, change routes or at least change the direction in which you travel. Kick up the intensity by increasing resistance, reps, sets or whatever applies to your workout. Make the workout more challenging. Take up a new activity - whether it's Zumba, spinning, kickboxing, Pilates or something else. Surprise your body by trying something new. Not only will you feel the difference by mixing things up - so will your body.
