REST to be YOUR BEST

REST to be YOUR BEST


Rest days are an essential part of any workout routine. Contrary to what some people may believe, working out every day without taking any rest days can actually be counterproductive. Rest days allow your body to recover and repair the muscle tissue that was broken down during your workouts.


In fact, rest days are just as important as the actual workouts themselves when it comes to building strength and improving performance.


One way to maximise the benefits of rest days is through active recovery. Active recovery involves engaging in low-intensity exercise that promotes blood flow and helps to alleviate muscle soreness. Some examples of active recovery activities include yoga, walking, cycling, and swimming. These activities can be done on rest days to help speed up the recovery process and prepare your body for the next workout.


Another great way to use rest days is to focus on mobility and flexibility. This can include activities such as foam rolling, stretching, and mobility exercises. These activities not only help to improve flexibility and mobility but can also help to prevent injury and improve overall performance.


In conclusion, rest days are crucial for improving performance and overall fitness. By incorporating active recovery and mobility exercises into your rest days, you can maximise the benefits of the recovery process and prepare your body for your next workout.


👉🏻So, next time you feel tempted to skip your rest day, remember that taking a day off can actually help you achieve your fitness goals faster.
