Some more detail about what you do could still help. For instance, saying that your workouts are very intense could mean a lot of things.

On the cardio you say that it is usally the bike. What Ross is saying about changing it up is very important. The body's response to "cardio" is simply to get better at it. Just like the body's response to strength training is to get better at it.

With strength training that is what you want. Up to a point you need consistency and overload to get stronger with enough variation to overcome plateaus. But with cardio that is NOT what you want. With cardio "chaos training" is best as well as mixing the intensities, etc. Remember, whether it is cardio or anything else it is still the muscles that are demanding fuel. Use the same muscles all the time in a similar pattern and the result is they can do MORE work using LESS fuel. The only solution is to continually do more and more OR change up exercises and movement patterns frequenty to throw a wrench in the works.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
