What to do on Rest Days

Rest days are important for those that participate in higher intensities and volume multiple times a week (5-6x). But for those that participate in activities for general health (less than 60 mins, 3-4 days/week) you probably don’t need specific rest days. But for those that do need rest days…what does that look like? It could look like a long walk, light yoga/stretching, bike ride, or cleaning your house. Rest days should not be a full “couch potato” day unless you need it. You should aim to get some movement in throughout the day without it being intense. Examples look like, going on a walk, light bike ride, housework, etc.
