I'm sure that as we get older, more experienced and our strength is already pretty good there has to be something 'extra' that is needed in order for us to get more out of our lifts

I add MORE weights every time I work out. I change up my routine every 3 months to keep from plateauing. I also train heavy (low reps) and light (high reps). I definitely agree with training for reps!

Ever since I started working out I wrote everything down in a notebook...how reps felt, if something was difficult, if something felt off, etc. It kept me on top of everything and I could make sure that every day I would try to do a little better, even if it was just one or two extra reps, better form, an extra set, etc.
Above all, the mind controls pretty much everything. Strengthen your mind and you strengthen the body!
