Day 5 and 6 - Rest and Strength

Day 5: Rest day

Take your time in the early days of getting back going. You can do active rest with some cardio, but you are well off to hold off.

Day 6: Strength Day

Just like the last 2 cycles, we are using the same exercises but this time we increase weight. It shouldn't be tough at this point, but we will also step down in sets, just to make sure we are ready. If you are struggling with a certain weight, wait until the next weight increase until you step up again. Be sure to warm up each exercise before each new exercise. This will be a good habit to get into when we really get up in the load increases.
