Challenge Day Six - Rest Day

One of the most important things to remember when you start a new workout regimen is that rest days are a must. Even with a workout program like this one, its important to give your body time to recover. That is especially true if you haven't worked out in a long time, if ever. 

Since tomorrow (Challenge Day 6) is Sunday, we will make it a rest day as well. Now, that doesn't mean you can lie around on the couch all day eating Bon Bons and watching TV.  You can do what we call Active Rest: go for a short walk, play with your kids, go sledding or anything else that gets you moving but is not overly-taxing on your body. 

I will be doing some yoga before the big game and then will be watching the Golden Globes to,or row night. I might try to get some work done in between all of that! Whatever you do, enjoy your day.  We will start to increase the intensity of the daily,challenges starting Monday so be good and rest up! 

BE BOLD! BE YOU!
