Rest Days Aren’t Lazy—They’re essential! I strength train 4-5 days a week, but I used to struggle with feeling guilty on my off days. I’m slowly learning that these rest days are when my body does the real work—recovering, rebuilding, and making progress. Switching from high-intensity workouts to strength training with proper recovery has helped me balance my cortisol levels, hormones, and overall well-being (alongside some key diet and lifestyle changes). Rest isn’t just important for results—it’s essential for your health! On recovery days, I love getting outside, soaking up the sunshine, and moving in a way that feels good. The impact on my sleep, energy, and mindset has been a game-changer!
