Why I Don't Believe in Total Rest Days Anymore

from More Movement Please

I work out 7 days a week and I've never felt better. Sounds crazy, right? Here's why active recovery days have replaced complete rest days in my routine, and why this approach prevents injury while keeping momentum.In this episode, I break down what active recovery actually means (no, it's not another intense workout), why movement helps your muscles recover faster than sitting on the couch, and how to structure your week for sustainable fitness. You'll learn the difference between rest and recovery, and why staying active every day builds better long-term habits than taking complete days off.Perfect for anyone wondering how often they should work out, whether rest days are necessary, or how to prevent burnout while staying consistent.This podcast is for entertainment purposes only and is not medical advice.
