I was told once by a personal trainer that the key to good health is threefold: Diet, Exercise, and Rest. If good health results in better overall energy, then a lack of energy would mean that one of these things is out of whack.
Over the past week or so I have been feeling sluggish, yet I have continued to push my exercise regimen. So, yesterday, I made the decision to do nothing. Just rest. Today, I did an easy 7 miler, which is scaling back for me... guess what? It worked.
Today, I woke with more energy, felt better at work, and did my 7 miler with gusto!
My simple advice today- if something is feeling out of sync, you may need to change something in your diet, exercise or rest plan. You may be under or over-nourished, you may be under or over- exercised, or you may be under or over- rested. Just start looking at what you're doing and make adjustments where needed... a little rest for me, went a long way.
