Planned Rest Days
It's important to plan rest days into your physical fitness regimen.
Wednesdays are my usual rest day because I teach yoga on Thursday mornings and want my muscles fresh and ready for the class. My usual daily fitness activity on Wednesdays is a dog walk early in the day. Today we walked for about 30 mins.
3 Reasons for Rest Days
- Muscles need a break to truly work to peak efficiency
- Your body needs a day to focus on hydration
- Mental rest - sometimes it's hard to find the time for everything in life, rest days give you a mental break from that constant juggling act
I also went thrift shopping today which is a passion of mine! Here's a quick Instagram reel featuring a couple of sporty finds I had to leave behind but loved:
You can only own so many vintage sporty things 😂🚴♀️⛳
