Rest Up

We’re always being pressured to do more and more. Especially this time of year when goals and a fresh start are constantly on our minds.

Remember: it’s okay to shut it down for a week or two. You won’t lose your gains, and you may even come out the other side stronger, more fit and better recovered. Time off is necessary to adapt, and an often overlooked integral part to a fitness lifestyle.

If you’re feeling good, riding momentum and feeling disciplined, keep it going. If you’re burnt out, stressed and hate the idea of working out. Shut. It. Down.

Give your body time to rest, recover, do some reflecting and know that in a week or two you’ll be ready to roll again.
