You don’t need a rest day 😜

Well, not the kind of rest day that most people think anyway!

Not the kind where you have a good excuse to sit on your ass and do nothing all day. 😬

But actually, our ‘rest days’ could look a bit more active than that and provide so many other benefits. From mental health, to weight management and so much more!

When we move our body we improve our workout recovery so we can train harder, sooner.

And for someone who loves working out as a daily routine, this comes as great news for me! Days feel weird when I haven’t had my ‘me time’…

But it also gives me a clear and defined goal each day to Show Up For Myself with whatever I need on the day - is it my next strength day? Is it a sports day? Is it a gentle walk or a cycle in nature? Is it a stretch or yoga session that I need?

For me, this mindset of showing up everyday changed the whole game for me.

Can you see it working for you too? Let me know!

P.s this does not mean don’t rest when you need it! 🤣 we MUST also focus on sleep, nutrition, stress management and other lifestyle elements. You get me? 😄
