Our body gets used to things very quickly and we stop making progress. A surefire way to beat this is to cycle workouts and cycle the order of exercises. Have three workout programs that you cycle through every 6 weeks and also switch the order in those routines every week if you like.
This ads variety and keeps you motivated, but most of all, it keeps the body guessing and adapting, which equals growth and progress. For example:
Barbell Curls
Alternating Dumbbell Curls
Hammer Curls
Reverse Curls
For two weeks, twice a week then use the #2 exercise first for two weeks, then the #3 exercise first, then the #4. You get the idea. Keep the body trying to adapt and it has to grow to do so!
