Yes…from the gym only. But stay active! Don’t you have laundry to do? floor to vacuum? desk to organize? Well, whatever errands you have, just don’t become a couch potato. For some of you who only work out three to four times a week, that’d give you even less excuse to be sedentary on the weekend. Weekends are also the perfect time to meet up with your friends for some pick-up basketball and football games. Remember, weight loss, muscle maintenance, or strength gaining is accomplished by consistency. While your muscles need time to recover from rigorous training, they also need some recreational exercises (ok…maybe not the chores, but you get the idea) to keep them functional. You don’t train yourself just to look good in the mirror. You also train yourself to prevent injuries, carry groceries, or lift boxes. So, utilize your strength and make your weekends fun. If you feel like showing off by walking around your neighborhood topless, go right ahead. Just don’t sit on your butt for longer than an hour or two without letting your blood flow. Have a great weekend and enjoy the sun!
