Today is your rest day, which is just as important as your workout days. Taking a day off from physical activity gives your body a chance to recover and rebuild any muscle tissue that has been broken down during your workouts.

Rest days also let you take a break from the physical and mental exhaustion that comes with a regular workout routine. Make sure to give yourself the mental health break you need and really focus on doing something for yourself and taking some time to relax.

However, it doesn’t mean you have to take it easy all day. While you don’t have to do a traditional workout, you can still do activities that benefit your body like stretching, walking, or yoga.

These activities will help with your recovery process, reduce any soreness from your workouts, and help you stay flexible. Stretching also helps to increase your range of motion in muscles, improving your body’s performance and overall health.

Finally, remember to stay hydrated and listen to your body. It’s important to take a break from your routine, but it’s also important not to overexert yourself.

Enjoy your rest day!
