Hello Friends! This is Dave speaking :)
I've had multiple conversations with clients about training gains that were worrisome to me and I wanted to clear up one common misconception. The body builds and destroys itself as a result of training. The acute response to training is a CATABOLIC body process, this is the breakdown of bodily tissue and fuel. The long-term effects are ANABOLIC in nature. These ANABOLIC processes are responsible for rebuilding and performance gains. These processes are most active in a well-slept, well-fed, de-stressed body. This is especially true if your primary training goal is weight-loss. Below is a link to a study that explains this concept in more detail.

Rest is therefore a required component to any training schedule. TRAIN hard. REST hard. EAT healthy.
