Welcome to Day 21 of the 4-Week Total Body Transformation Challenge

Today is the rest day of the challenge and it is just as important as any other day! Rest days are an integral part of any exercise program and should not be skipped. By taking a day off from your usual workout routine, you give your body a chance to recover and adapt to the new demands you’ve put on it through your exercise.

On rest days you should focus on the overall recovery of your body. Eating healthy, hydration, stretching, and taking a walk are all key components of a successful rest day. Not only will this give your muscles and joints a chance to recover, but it will also help keep your metabolism on track and will elevate your mood to boot!

Taking the time to rest is important because it helps prevent fatigue, burn out, and can even help improve performance and strength gains. In addition, rest days can provide an opportunity to work on mobility and flexibility, which can have long lasting benefits when it comes to your overall physical health.

So take this rest day to celebrate your hard work so far! Remember to treat yourself to some well deserved down time, and enjoy the fruits of your labor. You’re on your way to an amazing transformation!

Lastly, incorporate foam rolling into your recovery process to ease any muscle tension or soreness you may have. Foam rolling helps with blood flow to the muscles, increases range of motion, and helps to reduce muscle fatigue over time. Plus, it’s a great way to relax and unwind after a hard workout session.
