Re: My Summer time vow
You don’t gain strength or size when you’re lifting, gains are made when you rest. And if you’re doing KM or HIIT cardio when you’re not lifting, then you’ll never have any recovery take place. And you’ll also be setting yourself up for joint or connective tissue injury.
I weightlifted all 4 years of high school and competed on the powerlifting team (state level)…5 days isn’t too much (especially when the workouts are shorter) I am watching for overtraining and when I think that it would be more beneficial to stay at home, i do. I did take a little break from lifting though – so i have to get back into it.
and i have spare time because now that im out of high school there really isn’t much to do except the little work i do get and stuff like krav maga.
