| Jul 5, 2013 at 3:23 | comment | added | reverb | okay I will try that. Will overtraining hinder my fat-loss? the one week rest scares me a bit since I fear I might gain fat back during those rest days. for weight Im pretty much where Im at but it's just the fat that bothers me. lastly would caloric surplus benefit me as so that I won't have to have rest weeks anymore? | |

| Jul 5, 2013 at 1:35 | comment | added | reverb | It's hard news for me. I have been reading about rest weeks for quite a while now and while I do think it's needed I feel like that I am losing precious time in terms of weight loss. What I usually do is I stop for 2 days and then train again. Usually I can spring back to training after that but the intensity I think is just not there. Classic example would be I didn't train much last tuesday, but this thursday I trained and I was able to accomplish my routine. Could my increasing levels of fatigue be associated with sleep loss as well? Day job is getting in the way of giving time for exercise | |
