I’ve finally figured out that in order to be a great athlete, instead of just a good one, you have to rest as hard as you train. It’s tough for us super motivated, ‘A’ type personalities, because we just can’t switch off. However, it seems to work when I apply the same motivation to resting as I do training.
While the rest does you good, don’t expect to feel all chirpy after it because it can take a few days to kick your body, mind and spirit back in to line! It’s almost like learning to dance again!
Best part of a recovery week…spending more time with my hubby in bed – as you can see 😉
