90 days=rest
Some have asked about numbers for my BFL routine,..Here they are
goal is 3-5 one hour workouts per week to meet the 6 30 minute workouts suggested. (Due to time constraints its easier for me to do longer workouts fewer days per week)
13 workouts each month averaging an hour( I always have surpassed this)
39 workouts every 90 days(always surpass this)
MFP tracks this for me under reports
Every 90 days I take a week off...but to clarify I often do workouts during that time but I mentally take a break...If I want to workout I do. I don't agonize over it plus the downtime is good for healing up some bumps and bruises.
I have scheduled my 4 weeks off to be between 1.christmas and new years,2. first part of April 3. The 4th of July Holiday week and in October. I also cut my workout goals in half for December(christmas shopping parties etc) and July(hottest time of the year) However I usually meet or exceed that, but again I don't sweat it if I don't.
As an example I'm going into my 4th of July break with 19 workouts so far the last 30 days and 47 the last 90 days.
I would suggest you consider something similar for yourself to get that break you deserve and be more fired up when you return to your schedule.
Continued success to you all
