Try Something New
Are you one of those people who workout the same way, with the same weights all the time? If you are then you're wasting your time.
People like to be in a routine and sometimes that means the same exercise routine for months and months. They have a route they run and don't change it. They have exercises they do and they never change them.
The problem with that is that your body quickly adapts to those exercises and then you don't get in better shape.
This is because your body wants to get in good enough shape to be able to handle the stresses you put on it. When it gets there it stops. That's why you get sore from something new, but a few weeks later it doesn't seem like a big deal anymore. Your body had gotten in better shape and now it won't get any better.
The only way to break out of this is to change what you do. Change the number of reps, the weight or better yet all the exercises. Try a different class, or a different teacher which will give you something different to challenge you.
Do something just don't keep up with the same old thing. You'll be happy you did in the end as you get in better and better shape.
