Have you ever felt like you missed a workout, and you feel all guilty about it? Because I am now. I was too comfortable being in my bed that I didn't go for my usual morning run.
Buttttttttt, what I can say is that, we all need a REST DAY. I know that it might only sound like I want to comfort myself,but it is true! I deserve a REST. We all do.
Feeling guilty is normal, we are all human, aren't we. But it's not necessary either. Many times I have come to a point of minor depression(I know it's weird) because I thought I don't workout enough, and that rest is not needed. And then I realized that at some point, even our body needs rest. A body cannot function well if it is overworked.
There is a familiar quote for those fitness freak out there, "Results comes from 30% workout and 70% diet" and I can say, yeah, it is 100% true! No point working out like a machine and eat rubbish every single day.. You'll still be filling your body with things that ruin your body.
Treat you body right! If you start treating it right, results will come. And definitely missing one or two workout will not worsen anything. If there's anything that will come out of missing few workouts, it is good! Let your body rest, let your muscle repair.
Moderation is the key. LOVE YOUR BODY.
