A member asked:
What can i do on my off days that is effective and beneficial after strength training full body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Walking, abs, calves: Walking/biking/running 30-60 minutes a day on your days off is great. Also, although upper and lower body muscles should be exercised every other day, calves and abs (and back) need to be exercised daily because they are the hardest muscles to improve in strength and condition/definition..
