General Question

Guys,

I haven't experienced this yet but I'm just wondering....

I'm 2 months into a 6month Maxt-Ot program...i've experienced great gains and really picking up some strength.

At what point should I get off the MAX-OT program and switch to a different style program?? Should it be when I hit a wall?? Or when I hit a plateau that I can't get off of??

When do you guys switch your programs? Other than MAX-OT what are some good size and strength programs?

When it stops working?

Why are you even considering the change if you are making great gains OR are you asking this for future reference??

I dont make changes myself until I see that my progress has slowed down significantly or that I have hit the proverbial wall, but even then, I only adjust the change after I have evaluated if the stall is due to improper diet, sleep, recovery, etc..etc..

As always, the statement, "If it isnt broke, then dont fix it", really does apply.

I only change things when I stop progressing. Also, I see too many people switch the entire program because they have hit a plateau. A little too drastic - would rather just figure out what is lacking and fix the weakness.

EDIT - Guess I should also say, I switch programs when I get bored/unmotivated with the current routine.

Also you don't have to drop Max-ot completely. It's flexible - just change up some routines and exercises and you're set. Just keep the principle of it.


Good luck
