what the FUCK nigger, you told yourself you'd stick to it no matter what, why the FUCK are you missing workout days?

the truth is you don't want this bad enough, you're a fucking beta faggot with a weak will that should just quit now instead of wasting precious gym space with your worthlessness

just a little advice, plan your rest days if you don't already

instead of 'I'll take a rest day when I feel like it' and hoping you won't use it too much, have dedicated rest days 1/2 days a week instead.

i don't have rest days for this exact reason.

i lift every day, even if i feel like shit, even if i'm totally exhausted. i'll reduce weight if need be, reduce volume maybe. but i always lift.

never gonna make it, quit now

same for me rn
fuck

>have a rest day
>decide to do a bit of cardio and maybe some calisthenics
>end up doing a massive amount of push ups and pull ups and bike 40k at high intensity

I get you don't want to end up skipping but rest days are important if you aren't on steroids

>>37925403
fuck that. i'll rest when my body makes me.

Enjoy your plateau mayne.

Your workouts must be pretty shitty. If you've got that much energy to train everyday.

Nobody trains like that... you're either exceptionally gifted or more likely just going through the motions and haven't made any gains for years.

I feel like a caged animal on rest days, need to go to gym or I don't deal with my mindstate properly. I learned to do other stuff though to cope...need constant distraction

>>37924764
You need rest days or else you just are in (catabolic?) state constantly. Rebuild go in stronger. You'll adapt but it's actually your body smartly learning how to expend less energy and reduce effort so to speak to accomplish the same thing.

>>37925403
Regardless of using rons or not. You need rest days. If you're training properly it's necessary regardless... they're not a total panacea.

I do this every single fucking time.

>rest day
>decide to do light cardio
>end up doing HIIT or tempo runs

started lifting about 3 months ago, you tell me.

no steroids obv. i hit every bodypart every 2-3 days, making sure to give the individual muscles 2-3 days of rest. i figure rest days are redundant if i'm not hitting the same muscles every day.

my broscience is that because lifting increases test levels, lifting daily will maximize gains. if something is still sore when it's time to work it, i'll push it into the next day, but i always work something. you'll have to tell me if you think that makes sense.

Bad idea, just continue as you normally would, take ice cold showers as punishment if you wish

>>37921537
Fuck summer.
Same here.
Alcohol and joocy meat everywhere.

>>37921537
Lol. One rest week in a while can't hurt.
