In some ways I agree
But I believe Slow down don't STOP,just slow it down
Recently in was going to gym everyday AND started boxing training 3 times a week
The boxing training was harder than the gym , I thought I have to cut down on one so only done weights twice a week
Well last week my body was so tired I stopped everything for 3 days ,
BUT ....my body was tired ....but I knew if I gave up my body would be much worse ..so I reluctantly went to the gym and just done light treadmill walking
Don't GIVE UP completely!!!!
I'm going to boxing training more ....I can't do both weights in gym AND boxing training, my body won't let me it's too old .
I will only be able to do weights once or twice a week now and try to do more cardio
No alcohol or smoking and more sleep , don't throw on the towel just try to RECOVER more
