Every time I've taken a week off the gym I've gotten weaker.

Is there only solace in torment?

Uh, no shit? Why would you expect NOT training to make you stronger?

>>76322528
Because I listened to this monkey despite not having the space ape physiology to support his theory. Now we're all going to die to Cell.

There's been times I've taken 3 weeks off and come back stronger. Git Gud

>>76322520 (OP)
you have shit diet and or sleep

>>76322520 (OP)
If you were actually putting in work at the gym then you should only be coming back stronger.

retard overtraining

Sometimes it's mental. If you go back to the gym expecting to be weaker then you will be. You have to believe in yourself

goku said to take a week off because they trained for a year straight in the hyperbolic time chamber and had to let their body be at prime condition for cell. you're taking a week off cuz ur lazy

Today's losses are tomorrow's gains

I try to lift 6 days a week and i always feel stronger after any time off.

i took two weeks off for my honeymoon and three weeks for squats because i didn't want to risk fucking my shit up before the wedding. i felt like death squatting one plate when i returned.
its not fair.

Anon. You didn't pray. Silly.

Eat more; the body will have more nutrients to repair itself. Strength is absolute, strength IS justice, so it is very important to rest nonetheless.

I usually have 4 days off of lifting every 1 or 2 months when im feeling burnt off. I usually become a bit bigger and i can lift harder when i do it again. If i go past a week or a week in a half, yes, my strenght and endurance goes to shit. Also, ive realised that lifting based on how energetic i feel gives better results than autistically grinding, i usually do 4 sets of each but if i feel 2 or 3 are enough i leave it there.

This is the truth. Unless you fuel yourself correctly you will be weaker

>>76327037
Fuel myself how? Cronometer is showing me I don't have any serious deficiency in anything.

The meaning of life is choosing your toils. You will toil regardless, so choose well.

So you are getting your four major macros?
>Protein
>Fat
>Carbs
>Pussy
If so then you should be all good to go. I don't see how you wouldn't be getting stronger.

>>76322520 (OP)
For me, even 3-4 days off means I will get weak af when I come back and it usually takes me a week of training to get back on the previous numbers. I don't get it when someone suggests to take a month off to get stronger lmao, it doesn't make any sense. Week or two off means like a month worth of training to return to my original strength levels. I experience this every year when I leave for vacation.

Same

Rest is very important.
A bit of lost gains are nothing compared to the sustainability you get.
