Why You Should NEVER Rest After An Injury
THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY BENEFITS TO EXERCISING
“Take 6-8 weeks off” is something we’ll probably NEVER say to you.
When you take time off for an extended period of time (4+ weeks), you’re setting yourself up for even bigger health issues.
Related to physical health, here are some wild statistics for you after inactivity:
After 3-4 weeks, you start to lose muscle mass and strength
After 5-10 days you begin to decrease your endurance.
What’s even worse can be of even more physical, mental, and social effects.
