Signs it's time to deload?
It's been 6 weeks since my last deload (which was hiking and some moto dirtbiking on vaca). Is this too soon? Idk if this past week was just a bad one or if my body just needs a break, but the weights felt so heavy and it was hard to push myself like I usually do. I am eating plenty and getting enough sleep. I was supposed…

How many rest days do you take?
Do you take them between training days or all in a row? I usually do 2 on, 2 off. But thinking of doing 4 straight this week. My arms are sore from upper yesterday, so I don't know if lower is a good idea since I'm deadlifting etc.
