I teach my clients the concept of training hard and resting intentionally, which is simply the balance of working out hard enough to improve your body physiologically, and resting hard enough for your body to recover optimally. Keeping yourself too far on either side of the scale won’t be beneficial to your overall health. This is my philosophy.
Let’s chat about it.
