I have been lifting consistently for two years and I have gained about 15 pounds of muscle, but everything has just stopped. My lifts are not going up and my body composition has stayed exactly the same for months now.

I am eating in a surplus and getting plenty of sleep here in Seattle. I have tried changing my routine and adding more sets, but nothing seems to work. It is incredibly frustrating to put in the work and see zero results.

How do you guys deal with a plateau like this? Should I take a complete break or maybe do a deload week? I am worried that if I stop training hard I will lose what I have built. I would love to hear some tips on how to jumpstart growth again after the beginner gains have worn off.
