High-intensity Training: Definition, Benefits & Best Equipment to Buy

Do you feel like you’ve reached a plateau in your fitness level? It’s not unusual for even the most enthusiastic and experienced weight lifters and fitness fanatics to reach a point where they feel they’ve stalled, that their gains have slowed, or that they’ve reached a limit in what they can do.
