If You Feel Guilty For Taking A Rest Day... Listen To This

from Lorna Marie Fitness Podcast · host Lorna Marie Fitness

Have you ever got to Sunday afternoon and suddenly thought, "I really should have done a workout this weekend..."?Maybe you're wondering whether you've undone all your hard work from the week, or if you should squeeze something in before Monday rolls around?(You’re not on your own!)In this episode, we talk about why taking a rest day isn't setting us back. In many cases, it's actually helping us move forwards! We also chat about why our results come from what we do consistently over weeks, months and years, not whether we exercised rest over the weekends or not.In today's episode, we cover:Does a weekend off actually set us back?Why recovery is where we actually get stronger.What can happen if we're always training but never recovering properly.Why recovery often changes during perimenopause and menopause.How to stop feeling guilty for resting.Plus, a quick question about complete and incomplete proteins if you're eating less meat or fish.This episode is taken from one of our private Squad Q&As, where we answer the questions our members send in each week.If you'd like access to the full Q&As, live workouts and everything else inside The Squad, we'd love to have you!At the moment, The Squad is closed for new members while we focus on the women already inside. We'll be reopening in September though, so if you'd like to get on our waitlist, message us ASAP!
