2x24HR Recovery (March 2014)
March 10th and today, March 31st are the two days this month that I have taken a full day off from workouts.
When you get used to double training sessions everyday, taking a full day off can sometimes seem difficult.
I can question myself like:
Do I really need a day off? Wouldn’t it be better if I just do an easy workout?
But in reality, a break from the norm, is exactly what my body needs. Without proper recovery time, the potential for injury poses a much greater risk.
And besides the physical aspect of recovery, I find that a full day off gives my mind a reboot.
After today, I’ll be recalibrated, reset and ready for another long training cycle.
