So this thread actually started as a discussion in the shoutbox this evening where we were trying to help out a young brother on here "udbodybuilder"... His routine is a little weird and there is some concerns of overtraining... Get Some recommended he take a week off to fully recover.
Get Some is currently ending his week off and very much looking forward to getting back into the gym tonight... I just started a week off myself and will be stuffing my face like a beast. RottenRogue chimed in stating that as she gets more experienced she finds the need to take more time to recover.
So we're kinda curious... Do you ever take a week off? Any concerns about atrophy or loss of strength? How often do you rest up for a longer period than a day or two? Give us your thoughts!
