Cells can only get so large before they have too much internal size to function well/maintain membrane integrity, so your muscles can only get so strong before a limit is reached.
There's a difference between sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, which focuses more on increased muscle glycogen storage (size) and myofibrillar hypertrophy, which focuses more on the size of the fibers (strength).
The factors that limit our strength are:
-Neural drive (CNS)
-Secondary contractile messenger system
-Optimal actin and myosin contractile protein saturation
Generally if you reach a strength plateau you can continue to increase the size of the supporting muscles to increase strength. You can also increase the size of the muscles, which can allow for greater strength development.When you hit a wall on a lift, the problem is one of the following (this is true 100% of the time):
Physical
Technical
Mental - Loftren
Those are two very good answers. For me personally I find that the mental aspect is the hardest factor to control.
1. Keep my head on good nutrition which fuels the physical aspect. If I can't keep this straight, the lifts fail.
2. Keeping other distractions out of my head during my training.
3. Block fear
For me if the mental is good, then everything else falls in-place. Physical limitations are there but with consistent work they can be over come, to a certain degree at least.
agree...
and the mental aspect is a b****0 -

I would rather have the mental fortitude to type a complete sentence, then have abs.
but enjoy pumping gas for the rest of your life with communication skills like that. I'll stop in to say high next time I need my tank filled up.

Look at these sensitive ppl squatting below 300 mane, inb4 I am crossfitter and let me tell you0 -
Yup.When you hit a wall on a lift, the problem is one of the following (this is true 100% of the time):
Physical
Technical
Mental
Physical limitations are when one of the muscles used to execute the movement is not strong enough to lift the weight. This is actually the rarest reason someone isn't getting stronger.
Technical issues are the most common reason a person isn't getting stronger. Don't just "fix" your form, perfect it.
Mental issues are the hardest to fix. I have trained lifters who were convinced that they could not deadlift a bar with 4 plates on each side. So I loaded the bar with three plates, a quarter and 2 ten lb plates on each side, didn't tell them how much it was and bam, they deadlifted it without a sweat. Don't let yourself get in your own way.
The mental for some lifts will be the limiting factor until someone's advanced. Deadlift being the one I think, because of the big three, it's the least "committed" one you do. The squat, that weight will drive you into the ground and pin you there. The bench, the bar can come down on your and squish something. Deadlift? Just drop it and all that discomfort is over.

Wow... this *kitten* clown thinks we admire him? They make good drugs to help pull people out of their delusional fantasies. He might need to go talk to a psychiatrist for those though...0
