Hi Bloggers!
From www.MuscleEnhancers.com we bring you another article on all the new findings on high tech and all natural fitness and muscle enhancements. Today we share a brief article on the importance of proper sleep and rest during your workout days and "off" days as well.
Never underestimate your bodies need for rest. There are studies which show that the overall body as a system becomes worn down and sluggish after prolonged periods of hard training – despite days off – and taking even as much as an entire month clean off from bodybuilding a year can help to ‘reset’ your system and produce great gains when you restart.
Some people are naturally active, and believe just because they feel OK to work out, that they should. They feel like they are almost cheating or slacking if they arent hitting the weights day in and day out. Resting is part and parcel of bodybuilding. Even the pro’s – who are as advanced as it gets, and use steroids like there is no tomorrow – who work out like machines need rest. If they didn’t get adequate rest for their bodies, they wouldn’t grow. It’s about training smart.
Try at the least to get 6-8 undisturbed hours of sleep each night. As far as resting between workouts use our basic rule of thumb: "For every workout day incorporate a rest day in between. Do not workout more than two days in a row regardless of what muscle group you are working. During rest days avoid any strenuous physical activities. If you workout two days consecutively then take the next two off and visa versa for one day of workouts.".
