Best amount of time off

[bragaboys]

I wanted to know what do you think the ideal time off from lifting is ? I have been lifting 6 times a week for atleast 6 months. I wanted to take some time off. Is a week too much ? Or will I be losing gains that way ?

Nah. Go for it

whatever gains you lose taking time off you will make back. pro athletes have offseasons and then come back for camp to get back in playing shape. that is how it is done.. your body can always use a break

2-3 days. A week at the very most.

If you take off more then a week - you will start to loose strength
