Did you know that taking some time away from your exercise routine can be beneficial? Yes, anywhere from a day or two, up to a week, can give your body the rest it needs to recharge, recover, and come back better.
But, at the other end of the spectrum, in far too many cases, one week off can easily lead to 10 days, then two weeks, and so on and so forth. Soon after, all the momentum and benefits you gained can quickly disappear, and you’re right back where you started.
When times get busy, fitness is often the first thing people do away with, because it’s easy to come up with excuses. Maybe you don’t have the time or energy to go for a walk or a jog, the gym is too crowded, or it’s the season finale of Dancing with the Stars. But when you neglect fitness and activity for two weeks or longer, your body notices and changes occur.
