Thread: taking a break during cycle or PCT

I say give yourself a little break. If you keep feeling the way you do, your workouts will be average at best, which means you'll just be spinning your wheels in the gym.

Just make sure your diet is on point. Much won't change in just a week though, so you'll be ok. You may need that little break to regather yourself physically and mentally.

I'd just take 3-4 days off now and see how you feel, maybe add an extra rest day into your split in the future. You probably don't really need a full week off but if you feel you do then go for it. No one knows your body like you do so no one can really answer that. Only thing I'll say is I wouldn't go more than a week personally, and definitely don't do it during pct lol. Make sure you're well rested going into pct so you can push through your workouts those first two weeks or so when you probably won't feel so motivated. For me two weeks is about the time I start getting decent pumps while lifting again and since you've dropped some water you really get to see the new muscle you've put on which helps keep you motivated
