Resistance training isn't about keeping your heart rate up constantly - it's about alternating intense effort with REAL rest periods.

Here's why: Your muscles need recovery between sets to recharge so you can lift heavy enough to actually trigger growth. If you're rushing through workouts without rest, you're leaving gains on the table.

Rest = recharge = better performance = more muscle 💪

Stop feeling guilty about resting between sets. That's literally WHERE the magic happens.
