This episode might shake some foundations.
Because we’re diving into something almost no one talks about…
But it might be the single most misunderstood and misused variable in your training.
Rest.
That’s right.
Rest periods.
And no — I’m not talking about sleeping at night or taking a rest day.
I’m talking about those 30 seconds... 60 seconds... 2 minutes...
The space between your sets.
Most people I coach — whether in my group fitness classes or one-on-one — they think just because they’re lifting weights, they’re doing strength training. But that’s not how the body works.
You can be holding a barbell and still not be strength training.
What determines whether your training builds strength, muscle, endurance, or just gets you sweaty —
Isn’t the exercise. It’s the stimulus. And REST is a major part of that stimulus.
