🟣Bedridden but still jacked (ish)

My delicate lil dulce de leche, last week I was on my deathbed.

'd been struck down by what I could only describe as the plague. 

Or as normal people called it, a fucking naff cold.

You could have offered me a thousand pounds to do a single burpee and I'd have told you to piss on it. 

Lying there like a Victorian maiden, wondering if this sniffle-induced apocalypse would rob me of the killer progress I’ve been making with my training the last few months.

Two versions of me could have dealt with this. 

Old Rachel would have been spiralling, convinced that missing a week meant starting from zero, already planning some punishing ‘comeback’ routine.

But current Rachel knows the science. 

Fun Fact: it takes ~3 weeks of doing didderly-sod-all before you lose muscle. + muscle memory makes gains come back quicker than your anxiety after tequila.

And the guilt-induced panic? About as useful as a knitted condom.

But the thing that comforted me in my snot ridden state? My training is a metric fuck tonne more efficient now than it was years back.

I thought the only way to see progress was to never take a second off the grind so panicked whenever I needed to.

But as I discovered efficient, evidence-based training, everything changed. 

Fewer sessions, with better quality, saw more strength changes than the 100s of aimless sessions.

1 week off no longer felt like a big fucking deal. As I knew I would be making wicked progress the rest of the time.

1 week off in 6 months of consistency is a fart in the wind my G.

But that’s exactly what proper program does

It makes you damn efficient most of the time so you see better and faster results

All while giving you the space to be fucking human and have the pull-back weeks

This is literally why I built BITS. To stop people wasting tears like a did, pissing about in the gym and wasting energy on the wrong thing

Grab the free trial, get a proper program, and spend the rest of the year actually moving forwards whatever plagues come your way:

Big love and sniffles,
