I love these weeks for this reason. It’s a great reminder of if we still have “the fire”.
If you take a week off and the entire time you’re thinking “I can’t wait to get back to training”, champing at the bit, coming up with new plans, etc, there’s no doubt.
If you take a week off, the week ends and you think “sh*t, back to the grind”, maybe we need MORE than just a week off…
