Tippy Thursday's: Listen to your Body!

Aloha Polers, it's Thursday!

This weeks Tippy Thursday's Tip is to Listen to your Body!

All of us have our specific health and fitness goals that we want to reach in a specific time frame.  There are times when we have a minor injury, had a very stressful day, are very exhausted and do not know why, etc yet we still push ourselves to do things to reach our specific goals.  Some times this is great but in most cases don't forget that your body needs rest whether or not you are taking a complete day off to relax or switching to a less intense type of workout for the day your body will thank you.  Your body needs rest and recovery time and if not given that it will get burnt out and you will find workout's getting harder when they should be getting easier.  Minor injuries can turn into injuries that may prevent you from working out at all.  Listen to your body when it says it's time to relax.  It is recommended to give your body at least one full day of rest to recover and prevent burning yourself out.  We all know that burnt out feeling and I personally hate it especially when I have a goal in mind:).  Your body is smart and knows what's best!  Just think about it, it never skips a beat, a breath, etc.

Have a great Thursday and Listen to your Bodies!!!
