Nah I’m off for two weeks.

I would go Crazy to not train for 2 weeks because idk what to do (im too autistic to go clubbing and things like that lol)

Gotta learn to rest. No drugs, peds, supplements, therapies will ever come close to the benefits of an off period.

For me: I do one different activity per day
Days 1-3 off period I went skiing snowmobiling and snowboarding
Days 4-6 sea bobbing paddle boarding and in a 15 mins snorkeling lol
Do different stuff Good for your brain and body.
Make a list of stuff you don’t do often and do those things over your break. Definitely don’t ride while taking a break. Thats counterproductive

This reminds me of something I was taught in my college days...as told to me by manager when I spent way too many hours cooking food at Cracker Barrel:

"What do mopeds and fat girls have in common?"

"They're both a lot of fun to ride but you never want any of your buddies seeing you do it."

review
Dune part 2
hbo/max
Rating: 7.7
Significantly better than 1
Still way too long. IMHO they could’ve reduced 30 mins from each film. Dune 3 due 2 years from now. Lol.
There’s also a dune show on hbo/max that starts 10,000 years before the film. Lol. Not sure I’ll watch that but maybe.

That makes sense, but man, trying to get my brain to believe that at 2pm in the afternoon when I've already done my pinning and daily workouts..... my brain is like "you should be stuffing your face or finding vendors, or stabbing yourself again, or doing 1 more set..."

No routine. Just try to sleep 10-12 hours daily including naps. I drink alot of water, eat, drink more water and then sleep most of the trip.

When you sleep less like 8/9 hours you feel a slower recovery in the long run?

Definitely but depends on the output as well.

How much are you sleeping on average?
