I have been working out for the past three years and I maintain my workout log for more than two years. A routine which worked for me 8 months back is not working for me now.
I follow 1g of protein per pound of body weight and i followed the same then. What is wrong?

Hi Bala,
Maintaining a proper workout and diet log is a great. Hats off to you bro. I really appreciate the effort. The problem you described is a big problem which every bodybuilder maintaining logs would have faced. The solution to it is simple. I will explain it with a different example.
Do you follow boxing? But cant help it... I am gonna explain you with a boxing example...
There are two boxers(1 & 2) they get trained in the same boxing school and boxer 1 beats boxer 2 in a fight. But in two years due to hard work boxer 2 becomes a world champion and boxer 1 is still fighting in small clubs.
Now we fix up for a match between boxer 1 and boxer 2. Boxer 1 thinks that he will follow the same strategy which he followed few years back on boxer 2 and win the match. Do you think boxer 1 can win? Why?
Boxer 1 will actually lose the match because boxer 2 has adapted himself to be a better boxer and went beyond club fights and became a world champ. Similarly your body has responded to that routine some time back but now your body knows how to trick you if you give the same routine. So it is high time you go for a different routine now.
Remember our body has the best adaptation mechanism and it adapts very quickly. So my friend "Change is the only thing that never changes in life."
Cheers
All the best
