You have to be careful not to overtrain your body. This word is thrown around a lot in the fitness community and is sometimes used too liberally. For those that don't know overtraining is when your exercise volume and intensity exceeds your body's recovery capacity. If you are over training you will cease to make progress and can even lose strength! Another way to "hit a wall" is by doing the same routine and exercises for too long. Your body will get used to the same routine and you will not grow. Every six weeks or so I make sure to switch up my workout routine to avoid this. You are right on point here.

I think the one about staying hydrated is especially important. Especially for people that live in hot climates like me (I live in Vegas). But I also remember a while ago I had a really tough workout without eating first and I had one little swig of water and was throwing up everywhere, so it's important to eat also.
