The reason I'm writing about this is because I had a rest day today and I thought what do other people do on their rest days. I personally prefer active rest days and I do things that kind of speed up my recovery. I do stretching or yoga on some days, some light cardio or practice some handstands
You find a teapot in a locker at the gym. After opening it up, a genie pops out of the bottle and gives you two choices: Without having to WORK for it, you can get either: 1. a 100kg/220lbs bench for one clean rep, no arch 2. Strict muscle up(whatever your bodyweight is) for one rep Which are you choosing?🤔
This is one of the greatest debates in the fitness industry and in gym trends. Do you think it is MUCH MORE DIFFICULT to go from SKINNY to fit? Or FAT to fit?
