Small break, but no rest over the holidays!

At the moment, I'm enjoying some extra sleep and a few mornings of no gym.

Why?

Because, a:you need a rest every once in a while (more than just the regular rest days), and b:I need to spend some quality supervision time with my new kitten and older cat. (The wife stresses too much when the interact together). 

So these two elements combined will give me a short break and allow my body to repair, re energize and be ready for the next assault at the gym. 

What about Christmas and new year? Some gyms aren't open, some are. I would recommend a healthy break at this time to recoup AND most of all spend some time with family and friends!

Your gym will return to normal hours eventually and a small break isn't going to ruin your gains or make you stack all of your weight back on. 

If you start to feel guilty or want to keep a little active, remember that you can jog anywhere at anytime, push-ups require no gym and a whole array of body weight exercises can be found that can give you a nice little catch up workout in the mean time. 

So till the new year, stay fit, stay safe and ENJOY this time of year. (Hope Santa brings you loads of protein powder. )

Kdawg!
