Listen "Why REST days are the KEY to better Results!"
Episode Synopsis
Years ago, I burned out hard. I stopped exercising for 4 weeks— just walked. And guess what? My body thrived. What I thought was a setback turned out to be the secret weapon I was missing: recovery.
When you train, you’re breaking down muscle tissue. But the real transformation? It happens when you rest. Recovery is when your body repairs, rebuilds, and comes back stronger. Skip it, and you risk inflammation, hormone imbalance, and burnout.
Here’s what to know:
–Muscle groups need ~48 hours to recover. Sore? Take 72.
–We train M/W/F and recover on weekends with walking.
–Every 4–6 weeks, take a full recovery week—mobility, sauna, walking, foam rolling.
Worried about losing progress? Science says: You won’t. In fact, strength holds even with planned breaks. And your muscles remember how to rebuild—even after 15 years.
Recovery isn’t quitting. It’s how you win!!!
