3 Common Fitness Plateaus (and the Supplements That Can Help You Break Through)

If you're stuck, it might not be your workout — it could be your recovery

Ever feel like you're working harder than ever... and seeing zero progress?

Welcome to the fitness plateau — and yes, it’s common.
The good news? There are simple (and supplement-based) ways to bust through.


📉 Plateau 1: You’ve Stopped Gaining Muscle

Possible Cause: Inadequate protein or poor recovery

Fix:

  • Track your protein intake

  • Use high-quality whey or plant-based protein post-workout

  • Consider adding BCAAs or EAAs if training fasted


🛑 Plateau 2: Your Energy Is Tanked

Possible Cause: Low creatine stores, poor sleep, high cortisol

Fix:

  • Creatine monohydrate (5g daily)

  • Adaptogens (ashwagandha, ginseng)

  • Support sleep with magnesium or herbal blends


⚖️ Plateau 3: Stalled Fat Loss

Possible Cause: Metabolic adaptation, stress, under-eating

Fix:

  • Try a natural thermogenic fat burner

  • Ensure you’re eating enough protein to preserve lean mass

  • Manage stress (it kills fat loss)


Bottom Line: Don’t blame your body — give it the tools it needs to grow, burn, and thrive.
