taking time off....

[rookie03]

how many of you actually take a week off? i cant imagine taking time off, i just got forced to miss all last week since i had the flu, and i get so moody and angry, very impatient. i feel like i become a different person. has anyone experienced this?

well, we don't mind taking weeks off if we're really drained from weekly heavy works. like myself, I take a week or so off every 3-4 months.
it's reptty normal..really..no worries.
ofcourse, that would depend on your diet..if your diet is good..then you won't have to worry about muscle loses and stuff...
and you'll be a lot stronger when you go back to gym after taking weeks off

rookie03 i know what ya mean. I hate taking time off, pisses me off. However, the very few times i have taken time off i've came back stronger. I used to work out 5 days a wk and now am down to 3. Feel like i'm taking time off so was gonna go to 4 days a wk, but am making good gains w/the 3 day a wk, so might just stay there.

You basterds... I don't make gains unless I spend everyday of my life at the gym!

2 days off and I've lost 2 years of muscle. WHY?!?!

Not possible. its in your head. How long have u been training?? I u spent every day in the gym, u'd either hit a plateau, hit a plateau and then start loosing strength, or get an injury. Is your diet in check?? Whats your program look like??

either you're diet sucks..your routine sucks..or your genetic sucks..but either ways...that's comepletely not possible.
