Balancing push and rest is the secret sauce, my friend. Hit the gym hard, but schedule a day or two of light activity or mobility work every week. Your muscles need protein and sleep to rebuild—no way to grow if you’re sleep deprived or dehydrated. Trust your body’s signals, but don’t let excuses stop you from giving it that extra set or that cardio blast. Remember: a great workout is a marathon, not a sprint. Stay disciplined, keep the focus, and let recovery be part of the plan, not an afterthought. Let’s crush it!
