I'm stuck in the late twenties now...I keep fluctuating between 129-128...been going on for 2 weeks or so... !!

Any suggestions on how people spice up their routines at the gym? (Nothing too drastic though)

Like I've said in other threads - I normally do

HIIT(4mph - 9.0 mph) + Full body workout(weight/strength training) & Light Cardio on alternate days of the week 5 times a day..
I change my full body workout exercises all the time..and I recently tried to add incline on the treadmill during my HIIT.. My legs hurt like crazy after...!

My calorie intake is the same too. (I'm consuming 1200 Cals or less)
Please let me know if there are ANY ways to beat my plateau!

Thaannnks! :D
 
UGH XD you seem to do too much for me..you've probably burnt out all the fat already hahaha..

dunno I gym 3x week with 30 min 8.5 km/h and 10 km/h alternate and variations below and above.. not really counting so always different and a bit of other stuff, not much tho.
2x class lessons ^^; aerobics, step, blabla..ish. also depends
and run 2x week outside 5k early morning in park which is v uneven ups and downs.
and walk a lot everywhere.

usually 1200 kcal but when exercise above 1h or v intense, I up it to 1500 kcal. btw less than 1200 kcal is a no no because u must not go under BMR

been loosing steadily 1-2 lbs a week without effort. even had pizza cheesy crust, fries, bolognese and waffle all in one week and still no prob. I dont care if I loose only 100g a week.. but always loose more lol

i plateau like that too. i fluctuated between 127-129 for a couple weeks, then the next week i drop to 126. now i'm fluctuating between 126-127 and that's been about a week now. i'm already at the gym for over an hour a day, so i don't want to up my exercise time. what i normally do is just tweak my diet a little bit...like if i ate a couple cookies last week, with a total of 200 calories, i won't eat cookies this week but replace those 200 calories with something healthy. it seems to work...until i crave something sweet the following week! ha :)
