    yeah still need your rest days to recover.

    but you do recover quicker on a cycle too. which makes it better for your next workout

    One thing I have learned is that my body needs rest days. I have all the drive to train 7 days/week but I don't make my best gains that way. It kills me to do it (especially while on) but I take 2 days/week off. During these days I focus on eating lots of good protein and carbs to replenish my sore muscles and also getting enough sleep. When I get back to the gym after a rest day I feel like a new man and usually have my best workouts after a rest day. I'd bet that i'd do even better if I took 3 days/week off but I can't get myself to do it.

    I sometimes switch to a 2 on/1 off workout if I feel I'm over training, on and off cycle.
