Some strategies that you may want to employ will first come from if you are doing the correct exercises or not. This would require looking at your training regimen and the data to see if you are doing the same workouts over and over again. Second you may want to see if your intensity is lagging and you are not giving it your best effort. This is where you have to be brutally honest with yourself and use the reality principle.
Many times the reason why you are not getting the results you want is because you are not committing one hundred percent into your goals. You may have a fear looming in your head that prevents you from giving it your full effort.
I advise that you create a list of some of the setbacks that you are going through and write them down on paper. When you write the setbacks and problems down you will be taking the first step to controlling the setback instead of letting the setback control you.
After you write the setbacks down you will want to isolate each setback and come up with at least five different solutions to the problem. By having more than one solution you can try several strategies to see which one works the best.
When you come up with a plan on how you will overcome the setback seek a fitness professional and then ask him/her for their opinion and if they think your plan is a solid plan. Ask for feedback on what they would do differently with the plan you presented them.
After you seek out a fitness professional then you should find someone who works out regularly in the gym and who knows what they are doing and seeing great results and ask them their opinion on your plan. Jot down the feedback they give you as well.
After you speak with someone who works out regularly in the gym go online to a communication platform such as fitocracy.com or tumblr.com and join the fitness communities there and ask the audience what their opinions are. Jot down the feedback you get.
After you have consulted with several different sources find the trends and similarities on what they all recommended and then formulate a plan based on that feedback to start trying it in the gym or at home.
Setbacks are common, but you can get passed them. Seek out advice from a variety of sources to help push your workout to the next level.

Author's Bio: 

Fiture was founded by me, Greg Marshall. I understand that people want to live the best life possible and I firmly believe that health is the most important thing in the world because without health you cannot reach your potential in all of life's aspects without it.

I have been in the fitness industry for close to a decade now and have ran several personal training businesses, helped thousands of clients get involved in fitness regimens, and I want to change as many people's lives as possible. Fitness and personal training is my vehicle for achieving this goal and touching as many people's lives as I can.

I sell fitness because I believe in it 100% and know how it can change a person's life in an instance. Fitness gives you an opportunity to prove to yourself that you CAN do anything that you set your mind to. Sometimes all it takes is someone to give you the knowledge and believe in you to help take your life and happiness to the next level.

I currently run a personal training organization out of Salt Lake City, Utah at The Gym at City Creek. I have an amazing team there who helps me increase my knowledge, motivation, and truly gives me an opportunity to positively affect more people than I can even handle.

My goal is to help you change your life today!
