Taking a Break

Ive created somewhat of a bad habit for myself. And that is that I never take a break when I train.

Its actually becoming a problem both mentally and physically. I feel an enormous amount of guilt when I miss a day (I train 7 days a week) because i cant stand the idea of gaining any fat and now my body is struggling to lift even a starting set.

Currently im running Tren A at 100 Mg ED and Test P at 50 mg ED, age 22 height 6*5. This has been a huge cut cycle so im already running low on calories, maybe 1500 a day.

Would I see any improvement if I took say a 5 day break? Cardio included in the break because my legs are shot to hell. Walking up my apt stairs is actually an issue now.
 
Your body needs rest buddy... You have to remember you do not grow in the gym you grow when you are resting and recovering. Train hard and rest harder. If you are feeling run down then yes take a couple days off

Run down is an understatement. Simple tasks like walking fatigue the shit outta me
 
Dam it ure overtraining .knock that shit off asap
.Tendons need recoup all joints need recoup..keep up no days off and you may be horizontal recoup in a hospitol..
Ok for real you need to fuel up that frame of yours because 1500 is one shake ..
 
#1 Rule :

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!!


take a break buddy. u wont gain 20lbs fat and lose your gains in a week.
eat right....get rest
 
If you're 22 and you're having these issues - keep in mind you wanna live a full life. If you're competing - I can understand lowering you cal intake - but if your not - why? You're not training hard - your just in OCD overkill mode. You gotta be smarter then this dude! Sleep is good. Good Luck.
 
I train 3 days a week and I have no trouble making gains. I even take a week off every few months. Take the week off dude.

Girls dude girls...I go to college with a STUPIDLY high body standard. Either you look like a god or you look like a pathetic p.o.s. Hence the reason for needing to remain lean at all times.

Kinda sucks really tbh. Hot girls know they're hot and are generally bitches about it. So every guy needs to work his fukin ass off in order to impress anyone lol.

Not to bash you- but maybe a bit...

Work on your "game" work on being a fucking seductive majestic fucking tiger! Yeah the body will catch their eye, but a real man can get keep a girls attention forever with just a few well phrased choice words.

I'd take charm over muscle any day, better yet work for both LoL
