MONDAY

ARE YOU GETTING THE RESULTS YOU WANT? OTHER THAN BEING ON POINT WITH NUTRITION AND WORKOUTS, YOU ALSO HAVE TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING RECOVERY DAYS IN AS WELL AS REST DAYS. YES, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. YOU SHOULD TRY AND GET AT LEAST ONE REST DAY A WEEK. THIS SHOULD BE A LAZY DAY AND HAVE NOTHING THAT INVOLVES EXERCISE. LET THE BRAIN AND BODY HAVE A BREAK. RECOVERY DAYS, ON THE OTHER HAND, SHOULD BE PUT IN WHEN YOU JUST FEEL BEAT UP OR FEEL THAT THERE IS JUST NO MOTIVATION THAT DAY. ON A RECOVERY DAY YOU SHOULD TRY AND DO SOMETHING ACTIVE THAT GETS THE BLOOD PUMPING AND ALLOWS YOU TO BREAK A SWEAT. EVEN THOUGH YOU FIND YOURSELF SWEATING, THIS SHOULD NOT BE AN INTENSE SESSION. A COUPLE OF EXAMPLES WOULD BE TO PLAY A SPORT OR A NICE EASY ROW FOR 20 MINUTES AND SOME YOGA. THIS WILL SPEED UP YOUR RECOVERY FROM THE WORKOUTS. TRYING TO WORK DAYS LIKE THIS IN WILL HELP YOU SEE STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING GAINS.
