Default Reasons to NOT Switch Routines every 8 to 12 weeks
I want to put together an article with simple, one line reasons on why you should not change routines every 8 to 12 weeks. Similar to this article:

100 Muscle Building And Fitness Myths Muscle and Brawn Bodybuilding and Powerlifting.

So, if you have a reason(s), post them on this thread.

This applies to bodybuilding and powerlifting.

Because consistency is more important than perfection.

And because it displeases the Iron Gods.

Early strength comes from skill advancement and early neural adaption, from 8 - 20 weeks muscle growth accelerates.
