Single and double kettlebell

REASON #1: You MUST Create Some Form Of Overload

… Which is what I told him.

You must:

[+] Increase your reps per set

[+] Increase the number of sets you do

[+] Increase the load/weight you do

[+] Increase the amount of work you do in the same time

[+] Keep the amount of work you do constant, but decrease the time in which you do it
Many people just do the same old thing.

At first, it works. You see results.

Then, the stimulus to create change is no longer a stimulus.

And that’s one reason you stop seeing results - your results stall out.

REASON #2: Random Acts of Variety

“I feel like doing Get Ups today…”

“I don’t feel like doing Swings today…”

Many people don’t see results because they are constantly “changing it up” so they “don’t get bored” and as a result, their body has no idea what they’re asking it to do.
A violinist doesn’t “mix it up” by playing the guitar on Tuesdays, the cello on Wednesdays, the Bass on Thursdays, and then for a “challenge,” the piano on Fridays to “keep it fresh.”

No, he plays the violin every day, and changes what he plays.

There has to be some “continuity” in your training program so your body can adapt.
Sure, you can use a variety of similar and / or related movements:

2-Hand Swing, 1-Hand Swing, Hand-to-Hand Swing…

Goblet Squat, Single KB Front Squat, Double KB Front Squat…

Single Military Press, Double Military Press, Bottoms Up Press…

You get the point, right?

(Hopefully.)
You can also inject variety by changing the set and rep schemes, the size KBs you use, and even the rest periods.

Each will have a different effect and produce a different outcome.

REASON #3: Inconsistency.

Many people are “Consistently Inconsistent” -

Meaning something always comes up and gets in the way of their workouts.

They train 2 days one week… 1 day the next week… then 3 days (!)... then back to 2 days…
Then they “pull a muscle” and “have to” take 2 weeks off…

And as they go to bed tonight they’ll look back and wonder why they haven’t achieved the goals they set for themselves on January 1st…

“This kettlebell-thing just isn’t working…”

… They’ll say to themselves.

No, amigo. YOU’RE not working!

BONUS - REASON #4: They Eat More to Accommodate For Their Workouts

Here’s one that may resonate with you:

You workout, you get a little hungry, or hungrier than normal, so you eat more.
Simple.
4 weeks later, the scale hasn’t moved or worse -

The scale is up!

(And your clothes are tighter in the wrong places!)

Look, if your goal is to “lose weight,” you have to put the proverbial “knife to your throat” and not eat so much.

Working out isn’t a license for pigging out.

If you’ve “struggled with your weight,” you can’t just “wing it.”

You have to know what you’re eating.

All of it.
