Rich Piana- "There is no such thing as overtraining, your either undersleeping or undereating."
No lol, yeah your right you have to rest. I always break my PR's when I take 3 days off. I just hate it because I keep thinking I'm loosing muscle mass and getting weaker;
Yep. I always overtrain, I love the gym lol But I make myself take a day off if I'm really sore (like today) otherwise I'm a huge fan of active recovery. No lifting but I'll go for a swim, hit the bike, something light
Yes yes yes!!! Less is more when it comes to training. Go smash it then chill. I am more of a power lifter than anything but I am also a fan of heavy duty training like Mentzer was all about. Forget about all that 5-6 day splits, yea you can do that for maybe 2 weeks b4 your joints, muscles and CNS are like STOP!!!
Yup it's so overlooked yet so important. I constantly overtrain myself and have to take a week because I don't take enogh rest days. Gonna be smarter from now on.
So true
