I've been lifting hard all summer. Next week I plan on taking a much needed week off. During this week should I rest completely or would cardio be a good idea? I have not done cardio all summer. My bodyfat is a little high, nothing major. [This message has been edited by JCVD (edited August 25, 2000).]    | ||

Do some easy stretching that week off but besides that, I would rest completely. Even though cardio is less srtessful on the muscles, joints, and ligaments than weights, any kind of cardio still puts stress on the body. For optimal muscle growth, your muscles need to fully recover. Especially during this week, watch your fat intake! and try to get more protein into your diet. -------------------------------------- Train........................(S)mart | ||
