I need Advice...

Hello.
I have a feeling my body is asking for some time off from exercise, I am getting pains and i just feel very sluggish in my workouts lately, so i was thinking to just take the rest of the week completely off form exercise. My question is i just started a Gym Styles rotation on Sunday and so far have only done Chest and Triceps, so if i take a week of should i redo chest and triceps or just take a complete 7 days off and then just pick up on day three of the rotation where i left off? Any Advice would be very much appriciated!

Michelle, my advice would be to do Chest and Triceps again after taking the rest of the week (or 7 days) off. After a full week off (or even 48 hours off) from weight training, your body should be fully recovered and ready to go again. Plus, you don't want to wait too long to work chest and tris or you may lose some strength gains.

Good for you for listening to your body. After 7 days off, you can start anywhere you like. As long as you go back to doing all 3 of the GS, it doesn't matter what order you go in.
