Staying is shape is part of living a healthy lifestyle. It lets you be the best you can be in the physical realm (Don't forget the other parts and making sure those are also healthy). If you have been reading for a while you might be aware I engage in a number of sports, have a fitness trainers certificate, and a yoga certification. There are a few other things but the point being that I'm not new to the world of sports and I'm also interested in it and thus the reason why constant learning is important.
This article is for those who want to perform at the best they can and maintain a healthy lifestyle. For those of us who work out regularly we often discount the value of recovery and push the limits. I have years of pushing the limits and it can lead to decreased performance.
Recovery seems to be important but knowing how much time is helpful. It is possible to not have days off but it would be difficult to have a routine that builds in that recovery within the program itself through augmentation. Still, I think its good to take a day off a week as a general rule. For those of us who know our bodies. we might be able to gauge our tiredness.
