    Plateau/ overtraining

    Hey guys I feel like I'm hitting a plateau or I think I'm overtraining, should I take a week off from the gym? My workout consists of going to the gym 5 days a week, 3 days weight training and 2 days cardio and abs. I've been going hard for 2 months like that. Any advice I would greatly appreciate it thanks.

    Time off didn't hurt anyone and is sometimes what the doctor ordered. You will probably come back after a week off and set PR's.

    You could also do a deload week instead of taking it entirely off.
    I wanna be the very best
    Like no one ever was
    To catch them is my real test
    To train them is my cause

    I will travel across the land
    Searching far and wide
    Each Pokemon to understand
    The power that's inside
