Intensity VS recovery
Posted on March 21, 2009 | 3 CommentsThis year I've been struggling to figure out where to set my intensity level. 'Common' bodybuilding thinking would have you put 100% effort into your workout and have you staggering out of the gym about to fall over. However, if I doing this leaves me fatigued and putting in a sub-par effort the next workout. Therefor my 100% for the next workout is more like 50% and a slippery slope begins where I spend my whole weekend in bed or grizzling at my loved ones. I'm interested in how other set their intensity and recovery level so please leave comment on your thoughts. Does everyone else really "smash it" in the gym everyday?
