We now understand that our bodies do not necessarily treat physical stressors (i.e. weight training) that differently from emotional and psychological stressors (i.e. getting fired from your job or broken up with by your significant other) — a lot of the physiological responses to seemingly unique stressors are actually the same.
What this means is that it is imperative that we are able to rest, relax and “turn off” the stresses that come with daily living if we expect to be the best version of ourselves in the gym.
Setting aside time for stress-management strategies like casual social gatherings, relaxing massages, controlled breathing exercises, yoga, and frequent sexy-time can greatly improve our ability to recovery (albeit a bit more indirectly).
