Thanks for such a quick & educated reply… I can always depend on you for an informative and knowledgeable response! I will definitely try out the different reps, weights & times. I do change my exercises and reps but it’s not that drastic, so the results of these new reps/weights will be interesting. I guess I could whip out my P90X DVD’s but I’m so noisy I’m afraid I’ll be getting a knock on my door at 6AM from all my stomping around. The rest days also seem like a fabulous idea as well since I usually count my 12 hour nursing shifts as my “days off” anyways. Probably not the best idea but I feel guilty just hangin’ around on my days off. Good luck on beating your plateau as well and thanks for the tips!
