Ep. 85 - Rest Isn't Lazy - The Science of Recovery and Downtime.mp3
Description
If you've ever felt guilty for taking a rest day, turning down plans, or not checking one more thing off your to-do list — this episode is for you.
Today, we’re breaking down the truth about recovery: why it matters, what it actually looks like, and how skipping it could be holding you back more than helping you. You’ll learn about the science behind rest, how it affects your nervous system, and why downtime is a non-negotiable part of long-term strength, fat loss, and well-being.
Spoiler: real progress doesn’t happen when you’re doing more — it happens when you recover better.
