REST DAY
Active Rest is a common part of successful training plans. It allows you, the athlete, to physically and psychologically recover from the stresses of training.
Active rest or active recovery can be loosely defined as a low-intensity activity, used to enhance the recovery process between training days. By taking it easy but still remaining active, blood flow is increased and helps to flush lactate and other waste by products. The quicker this clears, you can get back to training at high intensity for performance.
Examples are riding your bike, running, taking the dog hiking, playing sports, dancing, get creative and keep it fun.
