Rest Day: Makes me feel lazy.

I always feel so lazy on my rest days like I am not accomplishing anything. I know my body needs the rest, but there is something psychologically distressing about doing nothing for a whole day or two. Just saying.

    This is exactly how I'm feeling! I've been hitting it really hard lately, doing cardio every day, and I KNOW I have to take rest days so today is it... Feel so lazy!! I guess it's all about balance though, and taking rest days will force me to "go with the flow" a little more. Right?

    I'm always afraid rest days will turn into rest weeks...... try a slow flow type of yoga on your rest days... Very relaxing but works up just a little sweat so you feel like you did something!
