Recovery Week After Meso 3?

Hey guys,

I'm on Meso 3 and I can't remember whether you are supposed to take a recovery week after you are done before you begin a new rotation? Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi Lisa,

I plan on starting a new rotation within 5 minutes after completing Meso 3....in my bathtub. :p This will last approx. 7 days. I know I will definitely be taking an active rest week, give the muscles time to regroup and move onto something else. I only just started Meso 2 and I'm already listening to my body...lol I figure nothing but GOOD can come from taking a rest week after an intense bout of strength training.

My sister and I were just discussing this yesterday. We are assuming that we do another active recovery week after completing week 4 of meso 3. It only seems to make sense that you would, doesn't it?

I am definitely planning on an active recovery week after meso III. One of the many things I have learned from STS is how valuable those recovery weeks are. They are hard to do and in fact, a little scary to do, but man do they pay off. At the end of both of my previous recovery weeks I was chomping at the bit to get back to STS, and I think the recovery week really helped me to get the most out of the following mesocycle.

Cathe, as always, knows what she is doing!
