    Don't do the thing you are resting from.

    I usually take my dog on a much longer walk and then I do a 20 min stretch session to make sure I'm all ready to start my work outs again on Mondays :)

    For me, cycling for anything less than an hour is a rest day. Yesterday I rode for over three hours.

    Yep ... we cycle for an hour or slightly less on evenings when we just want a bit of a recovery ride. :)
