Knowing When to Rest
This morning I struggled.
CrossFit HQ workout looked hard and my body felt battered and sore. How does one truly know when they should rest and allow the body much needed recovery? …and when the mind is playing trciks on you because you just “don’t feel like it today”
My personal belief is both scenarios can possibly be one in the same.
Some days, I feel like a monster and aspire to train as such – and some days, although much less frequently, I feel tired, lethargic, sore, and/or beat-up. Some say it’s being lazy, but others say that it’s your body asking politely for rest – ignore it, and the body may become less polite and just make you sick.
No thanks.
I’ll sit this one out today – eat like a champ – rest, and hammer the WOD tomorrow during the HQ rest day.
Thoughts?
