Rest

I apologize for not keeping up yesterday. It's labor day weekend which puts us roughly nine weeks from nationals. This weekend is going to be the last weekend of rest as we think about making a push toward the respective regional tournaments. The point of today and yesterday is to allow your body to rest while you are still relatively active. Relaxation for muscles is one of the more difficult aspects of exercise. Too little, we overwork the body and burn out. Too much, we never truly unlock our potential and we may loose the rhythm of the workout cycle. As you go through the rest of the day, keep cognizant of how much energy you are expending. We don't need anything over the top, but we do need to be active. Enjoy the rest of the day because a new week is upon us and we have some distance to cover!
