Taking a week off from lifting and only gonna focus on doing cardio.

[Lovetogetjacked]

So I've decided to take a week off starting today.I just need a break to be honest with all of you.

The only thing I will do is cardio (30 minute sessions on the stepmill)

Thoughts and opinions please.

I take 5 days off from lifting every 10 weeks or so. To me, it's necessary. It's not uncommon at all to take a week off several times a year. Most people do some kind of time off/deload at least 4 times a year (every 3 months).

I take more frequent time off because I primarily train heavy (1-5 reps) and I train to progressively set PRs, so I am constantly trying to push my limit slowly but surely.

Agreed. A week off is a holiday for your body. All you GAINZ won't evaporate

I often take 1 to 2 weeks off, only to come back stronger.
