    It's good to take a week off every few months to give your body a break from all the abuse you put it through. You most likely will come back refreshed and a bit stronger from the long rest. I personally like to take a week off every 3 months.

    Hey guys,

    I had read before taking a break can make you stronger and wondered about it. I'm a gym rat and I would feel horrible if I wasn't in the gym 3 days a week. I get stressed over it. I am high strung and for me it relieves stress.
